Tasting Notes |
Robert Karlsson | A bit winey nose here, dark sugars also. Tannins. Some spent matches, but not in disturbing amounts. Dark chocolate. Thick sherry inspired taste here. Orangey, rich. Dates, raisin. Some spent matches in the aftertaste also. Big whisky for sure. |
Krishna Nukala | That rich and dry fruits nose you expect with such kind of coloured whisky. Lots of organics, oriental spices like cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg. Few drops of water enhance all above notes. On palate it is like rich dessert- loooong sweet finish! Blind tasting MMA 2013 |
