Nosing: you can feel the porto cask influence very strongly

Taste: dry fruits, sweat but not to sweat - more dry, delicate but with character

Finish: medium, sweat and nice

Comment: This one is perfect for a price. Only two additional years in porto casks and it makes so much difference from Original! The only minus of this whisky for me is that you can really feel 46 volts in your throat - good to add few spoons of water.
