Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale straw
air Nose
powerful but curiously subdued at first nosing, with just notes of paraffin and green apples. It gets then very green, very herbal and quite cardboardy again. Develops on lamp oil, olive oil, linseed oil (okay, okay) and wet newspaper. Very close to most OB's, prototypically Tullibardine and as such, interesting if you want to document that distillery in your bar, I'd say
restaurant Palate
sweet and funnily oily, soon to get very dusty. Strange notes of plastic, cod oil (aaargh), something like scented soap, grass, ink (remember, at school…), apple compote and finally black pepper. Not exactly good but hugely entertaining. Long finish, much spicier, peppery, with even chilli or hot curry sauce. Yes, this one's very funny, hence my 80 points . MUSIC – Recommended listening: it's Sunday, we go classical (and somewhat pumpous) with the 1er Mouvement de la Symphonie de Chasse.mp3 by Jean-Joseph Mouret (1682-1738), played by the Insititut Hubert Heinrich de Musiques de Chasse. A la chasse, à la chasse! Please buy their music. December 23, 2006 YES - that's right, we have a new design right for Xmas. Not too different, but 'tighter' enough to please the Malt Maniacs' lider maximo Johannes, who used to keep pestering me because he 'suggested' Whiskyfun's 'look' had to be closer to Malt Maniacs'. Well, I hope we succeeded, and that this new set-up is to your liking. Anyway, fun will prevail.
