Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

starts on varnish and old furniture right away, lots of roasted nuts and American coffee. Hints of smoke probably from the wood, caramel crème, hot croissants, freshly sawn oak… Goes on with a little menthol, vanilla, hints of bitter oranges… Rather perfect if you like grain whisky

restaurant Palate

starts on quite some varnish again but gets then very fruity (lots of apple juice, very ripe gooseberries, green bananas that make me think of an Irish). Hints of bubblegum, lots of vanilla again, a little nutmeg… Nice oakiness, with silky tannins. Not dry in any way. And then again these nice mentholated notes. Finish, medium long, very fresh (vanilla ice cream), getting just slightly bitter after a moment (chlorophyll, green tea). Very nice old grain whisky, in any case. 87 points . Invergordon 1966/2006 (49.4%, Taste Still Selection, bourbon cask #2722, 109 bottles)
