A certain mineral side, with a slight metallic note. An herbal profile. No doubt, this is definitely a typical clairin. You can feel the finish, although I'm not convinced that what it brings is a good thing. Very honest for the price!

Quite little fruity associations. The barrel brings here a great heaviness and spice purely.

Not being a big whisky fan... I must admit that it's very tasty... And the quality is there
