Jelle van der Vlugt 3.8

Lovely little bottle of joy, this Akashi Red is the second Japanese whiskey I am trying. Opens with a nose of butterscotch, chocolate, dark roasted coffee and crema di limoncello. Exquisitely soft on the tongue, regaining the butterscotch, melted with caramel, toffee, Tawny port and red dried fruits. The aftermath is just a little dissapointing, though there is a lot of fruitiness (apple, banana), there are also a lot of tannins and a very dry mouthfeel. Rings it down a bit, but nevertheless a very good imported whiskey for an acceptable price. Could have been a larger bottle, though!

Azjatyckie Japonskie whisky ostatnie na liscie z warsztatów degustacji. Nie wyroznilo mi sie niczym bardzo. Poprawne. Wersja europejska czyli bez dodatku melasy

StinkyBatt 2.5

Not Bad and unfortunately not good either, boring whisky with no unpleasant aromas

BentRock 3.8

Mild and easy drinking. Neat is best. No strong overstates on palate

Francesco Locorriere 3.5

Delicato con sentori distanti dai soliti whisky
