8.0/10

#5757 28.09.2025 Day two of the Whisky Live 2025, which this year looks better organized/arranged inside. Also a very nice release at an affordable price. Well balanced ABV with some nice wood, spices, light papaya and faint salt. There is a light bitterness on the palate.

Intense, smooth with a frank and dry attack where strong notes mingle, woody, roasted
