In the mouth this Whisky expresses notes of quince / lemon, pâtisseries and discreet hints of quenette / exotic fruits, jasmine associated with a subtle hint of beeswax, a very discreet hint of grilled oak, smoked as well as an imperceptible hint of gray pepper on the aftertaste. Good length. The aftertaste is finely powerful.
