Tasting Notes by Rocky
-
Nose
Fruity nose with orange and lemon joined by vanilla and butterscotch, with a hint of smoke.
-
Palate
Silky and sweet at first, with Stollen, toffee, butterscotch and vanilla. An ash-like smokiness is present in the background, too.
-
Finish
The sweet notes slowly disappear leaving a delightful light smokiness.

Comment
This is a great introduction to German whisky. Fruity with a hint of smoke, this is approachable, but also has enough complexity to sip and enjoy after dinner.

Producer's Tasting Notes
-
Nose: At first, mildly fruity, malty, complex and spicy with lots of caramel, vanilla and toffee. Then fine raisins with a hint of baked-cookie dough with minimal trace of wood smoke. Taste: The taste is mild at first and well balanced with notes of fruit cake. Shortly thereafter, in a slow increase in developing a complex mixture of fine vanilla-caramel sweetness, thick toffee and mildly sweet oak. Rounding out the taste experience with a minimal hint of sweet smoke and a little Mandarin.
