Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

not very Glenfiddich, rather bigger in fact, reminding me of the old 15 CS. There are whiffs of pencil shavings and new plank from the virgin oak but nothing too big, while it remains unusually mineral for a while, before some classic notes of stewed apples and Belgian beer start to rise after a few minutes. Hard to say if I like it or not thus far. With water: more corn syrup, more vanilla. As modern as Kraftwerk ;-)

restaurant Palate

the new oak speaks out even more. Heavy vanilla and maple syrup, you almost need as spoon to get it out of your glass. So ultra-modern, I’d say, hugely extractive and hyper-sweet, it’s almost liqueur. My palate sort of likes this but my brain doesn’t. Politics! With water: vanilla liqueur with touches of ginger and honey. Atholl Brose

timer Finish

long, with the oak’s spices being more in control
