Words of Whisky (91)

:

Colour me impressed.
Nose
Opens up on gingerbread, fresh cherries, cinnamon sticks and damp rope. Most importantly, NO sulphur. It's quite dense, but water and time help to open things up. Touches of crushed mint, raisins, some laurel and good amount of umami. Earthy mushrooms, soy and sandalwood. Finally even some rose petals. It's a journey.
Taste
A thick, rich and dense mouthfeel. Quite a beast. The palate is leafy and herbacious, with fennel, aniseed and even some licorice root and cloves, but then there's notes of coffee grounds, polished leather, dark chocolate, and gingerbread. Water brings out prunes, raisins and milk chocolate. What an adventure.
Finish
More of the above. And long.
