Tasting Notes
Colour
deep amber
air Nose
much more sherry, with some heavy chocolate, coca and coffee. Hints of old cardboard. Hmm… This one is even lumpier, I’d say
restaurant Palate
ah, again it’s a bit more nervous, on some notes of crystallised fruits, tangerine and even ripe kiwi. A rather nice sherry, even if the whole really lacks freshness. Old bottlings are not always better, that’s for sure, as I like the contemporary versions of this one better. 80 points . MUSIC – JAZZ - Highly recommended listening: I've been mentionning Supersax quite a few times, so it was about time to post about a very good piece they recorded more than 30 years ago: Charlie Parker's Confirmation - mp3 - 'direct from the vinyl'. Weren't they good? ( via swingera.net ) June 7, 2005 THE MALT MANIACS ON ISLAY: Very last news – Well, everything went perfectly well until we went to admire the famous Kildalton Cross, Islay's most prestigious monument (sorry about the very bad picture).
