Nose: Rich and potent, full of red berries, it fills your senses; I could smell it for hours and hours. Palate: Aromatic herbs and forest fruits, raspberries and blackberries, but also pineapple and chamomile. It's velvety and full-bodied, yet gentle at the same time. Amazing. Finish: Full and long, without any flaws. A whiskey that surpasses all expectations, one that brings inner peace. Rating 5.00+

A very fruity drink. It has loads of apricot and plums.
Tasted this with a friend. So good.
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
