Tasting Notes

Colour

pale white wine

air Nose

this ones seems to be much younger than it is, spirity, immature, grainy, with no fruity notes that I can get. Really raw. Water does bring a few more fruity notes but nothing really entrancing (pears)

restaurant Palate

sugary, very spirity, all on pear eau de vie and sugar. Even more pears with water. Finish; long but sugarish. It’s amazing how immature this one is, I guess the cask wasn’t in its prime. But it’s sort of interesting to try old whisky that hasn’t really aged. 69 points . MUSIC – Recommended listening: This is fun, it's made by Barcelona's Pinker Tones and it's called Love Tape.mp3 (from their CD The Million Colour Revolution). Please buy their music (via the excellent False 45th ) September 20, 2007 SHOPPING - WORTHY ALTERNATIVES TO SCOTCH (what dear old MJ used to call malternatives says Davin) Stil Vodka comes from New Zealand and recently had a very cheeky 'Win a Russian Bride' promotion. The winner was offered a trip to St Petersburg to search for a wife and bring her home. The company added, 'For the single Kiwi bloke who might not be an All Black or very good looking, this is a chance to get hooked up with somebody pretty hot.' A lot of buzz was hence created, although not always very positive, as anticipated. Maybe we'll soon see a 'Win a Scottish bride' promotion...
