It will be available to order in Norway 14 March 2024 at NOK 959.
I have already tasted this whisky twice. First at a masterclass on Cinderella Whisky Fair 2024 with Andy Bell. The second time at home.
The nose has the notes of a young whisky – which it obviously is. I find something sour at first. Then the tropical notes appear, especially pineapple. Something metallic as well. The palate is sharp and bitter with the influence of wood. It is quite straight forward with not much happening. Peppery finish. The nose is the most appealing in my opinion.
