Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
very different, this one, much more on caramel and milk chocolate as well as all kinds of caramelized nuts and cereals. Certainly simpler but very enjoyable, honeyed… I’m sure water will do it good. So, with water: gets a little wilder but also greenish, a little acrid, and the roundness disappeared. I was wrong
restaurant Palate
powerful and a little bitter at first sip but the caramel and vanilla are quick to take control, as well as quite some nuts (nuts always take control, err…), candied fruits (notably quinces)… Gets a bit hot after a moment, maybe water is needed this time: yes, it worked a little better here. More on smoked tea, orange marmalade and chamomile. The finish is probably the best part, better balanced, with the oakiness mingling with the caramel and soft spices (soft paprika?) A very good whisky, no doubt about that. 86 points . Glen Ord 28 yo (58.3%, OB, 2003)
