Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
not a big whisky it seems. Rather grassy and grainy, the whole being sustained by a discreet but present oakiness. Picks up steam with time, with delicate notes of fresh walnuts and almonds and whiffs of wild flowers (mostly yellow ones such as dandelions and buttercups). Also a little ‘breakfast’ honey and whiffs of freshly squeezed oranges as well as a little porridge. A breakfast malt? Very faint smokiness
restaurant Palate
simply sweet and fruity (apple compote) with again a good oakiness giving it some backbone. I wouldn’t say this one is very ‘busy’ but balance is there
timer Finish
medium long, with a bigger grassiness now. Not bad at all, probably a little better than the 10 actually, but I think this lacks character. Well, I guess some people don’t seek character in their whisky. 79 points. Glenkinchie 1992/2007 ‘Distillers Edition’ (43%, OB) Finished in amontillado casks. I think the previous version in the older livery was already a 1992
