    14.04.2012 First visit to the Whisky.dk event after returning to Denmark after first living 3 years in Upplands Väsby, Sweden and then 7 years in Shanghai, China. Got back together with old friends to have a nice weekend. Notes. Dark in colour. Nose: wood, smoke, medicinal, herbs, plum, licorice. Palate: balanced, oily, wood, smoke, licorice, raisin. Finish: medium to long, wood, smoke, raisin, licorice.

    Versailles style comes through, but there remains a somewhat own "green" note that wanders between kitchen herbs and tea. Has a somewhat difficult time compared to other 85s.
