Comments:


Quite sweet, and the fruity notes are reminiscent of bruised fruit, not fresh fruit. Luscious and rich, although the bruised fruit lends a rather dishevelled, not-quite-hanging-together quality to the whisky. While not tasting great, this whisky certainly evokes some impressions.

Verdict:

Not bad.
