Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold with orange hues
air Nose
rather fresh at first nosing (cold tea) but soon to get quite toasted and malty before switching to more orangey and honeyed notes. Very faint rubber in the background and hints of toffee and fudge. Also a little smoke, probably from the ‘second casks’. Delicate but rich, getting heavily and impressively honeyed after a while (chestnut)
restaurant Palate
a rather demonstrative attack on coffee, malt and that chestnut honey that must come from the Port wood again but a rather sudden drop and then a rather thin middle, except for the malty notes and maybe these hints of rubber. As it sometimes happens, it gains steam again towards the finish, but with more rubber and notes of toasted bread as well as bitter chocolate, getting unexpectedly dry. A much better nose I think. 79 points. Cragganmore 1993 ‘Distillers Edition’ (40%, OB, Port finish, bottled 2006)
