Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

hot, very caramelly and markedly vinous (lots of cooked blackcurrant, kirsch), a little sourish, getting even a little acetic after a while. With water: now it got much more on mint and liquorice, with also a little varnish and newly sawn wood. The sourness and vinosity got less dominating. It’s much nicer with water!

restaurant Palate

bold and powerful but bearable. Lots of toffee but again this sourness. Not unpleasant I must say but it gets also a little rubbery and slightly drying. With water: better again, although the rubber’s still here. Also sweeter… But the tannins get really bold after a moment, and so does the pepper

timer Finish

rather long, toffeish, with still that faint rubbery notes. Still very good but certainly not the nicest batch of A’bunadh I could try in my opinion. 83 points . Aberlour A’bunadh batch #16 (59.6%, OB, 2005)
