Good labelling with minor staining. In original torn carton. Level: high to mid shoulder,
"...Mouth: glorious attack, just like if you bit into a slice of Christmas cake (or Alsatian berawecka). Thousands of dried fruits, chocolate, marzipan, jams, soft spices, old cognac (eh?)... and an avalanche of tinier flavours of the 'chocolate-coffee' universe. Brilliant. Finish: long, coating, creamy and jammy but not heavy, mainly thanks to the fairly spicy aftertaste. Comments: what can I say? This defines authentic sherry-matured malt whisky." (5 Stars-Whiskyfun)
