First smell (ofcourse) definitly very christmassike (raisins/sultana etc). Taste pomelo/citrus/spice, with long aftertaste. Drop of water realy brings out spicy/ all spice (kruidnagel). A whisky worth trying, neatly priced. The first sip does not do justice to this complexe whisky, more sips are required :) Edit: Aug 2019; got a dram in the ‘blind’ and was euphoric about this majestic whisky (until I learned the bottle was empty...)
