The result? A deliciously fruity Swiss whisky underpinned with those tasty cereal notes endemic in beer-influenced drams. sweetness, very delicate and light on the nose but the flavour profile is distinct enough to appreciate, sweet cotton candy, sweet red fruits 3.75 it taste nothing like whisky to be frank, and has a hint of malt and bitterness dryness to it, flat and the taste is lacking and you do not get the complexity in it and taste closer to a flat beer, a little raisin notes, light cream, mild peppery - i mean it is an easy drink but not for the people that prefers a complex wholesome whisky 1.25 nutty, mid sustained on the oaks 2.25 2.25 let me tell you that this will appear on my bar just because of the unique cask that it has been in -

BourboNeff 3.8

Tried some Santis Malt 3 years ago and was not impressed. That said, this pour was quite a different experience. The nose you can pick up on both the beer malt and red wine influences from the casks. The palate has some nice pear notes that then turn into white pepper spice. The finish continues the spice and is medium to long.
