Nose: full and powerful, lots of red fruit, fills the nostrils, I'd be smelling it for hours and hours. Palate: aromatic herbs and berries, raspberries and blackberries, but also pineapple, chamomile, velvety and full-bodied, but at the same time gentle. Spectacular. Full and long finish, without smudges. A whisky beyond all expectations, one that puts you at peace with yourself. Rating 5.00+ ____________________________________________________________________ Naso: pieno e potente, molta frutta rossa, riempie le narici, starei ad annusarlo ore ed ore. Palato: erbe aromatiche e frutti di bosco, lamponi e more, ma anche ananas, camomilla, vellutato e corposo, ma allo stesso tempo gentile. Spettacolare. Finale pieno e lungo, senza sbavature. Un whisky oltre ogni aspettativa, di quelli che ti mettono in pace con te stesso. Voto 5,00+
