Karuizawa 17 40%abv

japanese-whisky-067Nose: Struck match type sulphury notes. Sherry, marmalade on toast. Hint of glue.
Palate: Sherry, oak, a little nutty, struck match, smoke.
Finish: Sherry, smokey, struck match, pepper, dry.
Last Word: This is an odd malt that’s lacks complexity an cohesion. It’s not bad, in some ways it’s interesting, it’s just not special.
Rating: 79/100
