| Tasting Notes |
| Robert Karlsson | Very complex and intense. On candied grilled exotic fruits and also total sherry influence, big vanilla, big raisin and suchlike. Did I say big? This is where Serge would call for the anti-maltporn brigade. Everything from the nose and more. A real beauty. More! Holds up with both time and water. Awesome. Super whisky. |
