Gilors 2014 Sherry Duett

Smell
The German whisky reveals a tantalising aroma of a berry mix accompanied by the intensity of blackberries. A subtle note of gudeenuss mingles with the sweet hint of almonds and chocolate, while a pinch of clove adds a spicy complexity. The overall flavour is spicy-sweet.
Taste
Gilors unfolds on the tongue with a harmonious interplay of grape and spicy notes. A hint of leather and almonds gives the flavour a deep, rich dimension, while clove and star anise leave a pleasant warmth. The maltiness rounds off the flavour experience and ensures a balanced composition.
Finish
The finish is short but remarkably spicy, with a light pinch of pepper that gradually fades into a gentle sweetness.
Thoughts
The Gilors Sherry Duett from the Henrich distillery offers a multi-layered palette of flavours and a balanced character. We particularly like the well-defined berry flavour, which we rarely find elsewhere.
