Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine (the palest modern batch of the old ‘12’ I ever came across)
air Nose
oh, this is very close to the older CV! Wet newspaper, paraffin, wet stones, lamp oil, pencil lead, cut grass, wet chalk, cold ashes... It’s complex whisky, but with very little fruitiness nor wood influence if any
restaurant Palate
this is interesting, it’s almost the same whisky as the first CV. Why would I bother to write new lines then? Let’s just copy-and-paste from above... ... big, ‘ancient style’, oily, grassy, bitter... Little wood influence (nor sweetness) it seems, but really a huge grassiness and big notes of small cider apples (and the peelings), chives, lemon marmalade... A big whisky indeed
timer Finish
rather long, on apples, pears, wax and green pepper, with maybe just touches of salt. I like this one for its wildness
