Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
starts on a combination of citrus fruits with shoe polish and a faint milkiness (or fresh butter). The (relatively) bad news is that these milky and even porridgy notes start to dominate Glenugie’s usual fruitiness after a while. There’s also quite some cardboard, printing ink (close to shoe polish here) and hints of rotting fruits that aren’t superb. Now, even if subdued, the fresh fruity notes are superb as always, with apples, lemons and tangerines. Gets cleaner over time but you really have to take your time
restaurant Palate
ermnlblgmrn… on one side, it’s as deliciously fruity as expected but on the other side, it’s kind of dirty and whacky, cardboardy, too leathery and dry, with these notes of rotting fruits that are back. Rotting oranges. Also some disturbing notes of cheap strawberry sweets. Too bad because once again, a fantastic fruitiness lies beyond all that
timer Finish
medium long, dry, unexpectedly salty. Some weird tastes in the aftertaste (rotting strawberries?)
