ABV: 46.1%

Casks: Bourbon oak, sherry cask, birch sap wine cask

Age statement: 

 

Color: Gold

 

Nose: A nice floral citrus smell, with peaches, vanilla and jasmin. 17/25

Taste: Lemon and lime with a hint of mint and jasmin, spiced with pepper and the unmistakable bitterness of birch sap. 19/25

Finish: Birch bark and sour citrus, but also a continuation of the peppery flavour and a touch of sap. 11/25

Style: The bitter finish is a bit strange, but up until then it's fantastic. 15/25

Total: It's basically a successful experiment, and one I hope they repeat. As many other whiskies, this one benefits from "resting" for a bit in the glass before drinking. 62/100

Traditional score: 81/100
