Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this is completely different. Almost no false smells at first sniffs this time (I mean, what I think are false smells) but rather huge sour and yeasty notes, which I quite like here. Yoghurt, porridge, lemon juice, crushed sorrel and again these whiffs of wet dog. Also a little green tea, muesli… And maybe still a little Alka-Seltzer and sulphur but much less than in the 1995. Nicer, definitely, there’s also probably a few sherry casks in the vatting
restaurant Palate
this is definitely better now. Again quite oily and phenolic, with a more obvious peatiness, bitter oranges, candy sugar, a little caramel and white nougat, crème brulée, ginger, cigarette tobacco… It’s also a little yeasty, in a nice way (white beer), with notes of oatcakes… Sweeter, rounder and better balanced
timer Finish
not too long but nicely sweet and candied, with notes of lemon and a whispering peatiness. A good Longrow, definitely. 86 points. SHOPPING - They made it! This liquor lock isn't too cheap (£12) but it'll surely reimburse itself quickly if you have valuable whiskies at home. Quote: 'the lock stop works on most bottle necks and is a sure-fire way to protect your most valuable asset, or even to tantalize a loved one as they struggle to access their own booze!' MUSIC – Recommended listening: it's Patty Drew who was singing this high-energy version of the mega-hit Fever.mp3 . She's not around anymore but please buy her music!
