Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
very, very similar to the 46% version, perhaps a little more closed and slightly less fruity. Quite mineral and herbal. Maybe that’s the alcohol, we’ll try it with a little water…
restaurant Palate
ah, now it gets even closer to the 46% version, but not really stronger, quite curiously. Perhaps a little sweeter but that might come from the alcohol too. Let’s try it with water… No significant further development on the nose, just a little soap (like always when you ad water). I was too quick, let’s wait a few minutes… No, nothing more, just more apple skins and something rubbery and feinty. Yes, exactly like some low wines, in fact. The palate got a little better, that is, fruitier and waxier. But I still like the 46% version better. 83 points . CRAZY XMAS WHISKY ADS - STARS IN THE SKY Just like last year, I'll publish a few old Xmas ads within the coming weeks - and why not start right away with these two ads that look strangely similar. The Seagram marketing people are/were stars of recycling! Left, Crown Royal , Xmas 1985 , 'A star is poured.' - Right, Chivas , Xmas 1994, 'Not everyone is looking for reindeer'. MUSIC – Recommended listening - I first thought it was Whiskyfun favourite Nellie McKay when I first heard her excellent little song called Constant state of want.mp3 , but no, it's Christine Lavin . She's very good, if you ask me, please buy her music... December 5, 2005 TASTING - THREE GLENGLASSAUGHS Glenglassaugh 22 yo 1974/1997 (43%, Hart Bros)
