Words of Whisky (93)

:

A dreamboat of a whisky, displaying an incredible complexity on the nose especially, but also the palate. Incredibly glad to have tasted this legend.
Nose
Some very soft smoke and menthol notes, as well as some pine needles. Really delicate. The sherry is subtle yet omnipresent. Coffee powder, cocoa and milk chocolate with raisins and dates, as well as cherry marmalade. A hint of cigar tobacco and licorice and a just a whiff of glue. Superbly complex and enjoyable.
Taste
Again subtle and delicate, but also rich in flavour. Big on the sherry, but never overpowering. Slightly oily. Lots of milk chocolate, accompanied by polished leather and some soft spices, such as cinnamon and cloves. Menthol too. Also prunes and raisins, as well as marzipan and salted caramel. Slightly drying.
Finish
Aniseed, chocolate and raisins. Long...
