Tastingnotiz von Serge Valentin, www.whiskyfun.com
This wee German bottler usually selects good whiskies and rums, even the young ones. Colour: straw. Nose: fresher, fruitier, and more tropical than the 2003. For example, I’m finding more maracuja and mangos, pink bananas, papayas… In short, it’s one of those ‘fruit-salady’ Irish that always benefit from bourbon wood, while I’m not sure they enjoy sherry. With water: a little earth and green tea, all most enjoyable. A little fresh white bread. Mouth (neat): creamy, citrusy, very bright and tense, this is almost some kind of mineral limoncello, which reminds me of some young Rosebanks from… a long time ago. Very good. With water: dangerously drinkable! Grapefruit, lemon and orange juices, plus a drop of barley syrup and two or three crushed mint leaves. Finish: medium, very fresh, wonderfully fruity. Comments: top notch fruity spirit from just the right kind of cask. Perfect tango. SGP:641 - 89 points.
