Description
BUSHMILLS 1995 MALAGA CASK
Nose The Oloroso Sherry barrels deliver a concentrated load of dried fruits, leather and tobacco notes right from the start. There are raisins, dried apricots, figs and dates. In addition. The intensity and characteristics of the spices that are added later do not have to hide behind those of an older single pot still whiskey: thyme, rosemary, marjoram, star anise. In addition, dark chocolate and toffee.
Taste Full and very creamy, it hits the tongue. Here sweet raspberries and strawberry purée come to the fore, but then quickly accompanied by raisins, dried apricots, dates and figs. Tamarind.
Finish Long and only slightly dry finish, in which chocolate, white coffee, toffee and raisin bread long wave goodbye.
