Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

this edition starts rather fragrant, with roses, musk and even touches of old style blusher. Kissing an old lady? Then more soft spices, caraway, curry powder… and a little bubblegum just like in the Inverleven. An unusual nose, I think I’ve never encountered this style it in any other whisky except in earlier versions of Glenkinchie DE

restaurant Palate

much more toasted and malty, with also some honey cake, earl grey tea, vanilla, apricot jam… It’s all a little light but it’s pleasant

timer Finish

quite short and rather grassier, with something faintly mustardy in the aftertaste
