"...Mouth (neat): we're approaching drinkability at 59%. Lots of fruit jams but also a huge vinosity and quite some rubber. But water is needed again: it's funny, this time it got much mintier and more camphory. We have also argan oil, tea, bergamot, kumquats... Again, it's more straightforward and less marked by the sherry than its elder bros." (5 stars-Whiskyfun)
