Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
should I write ‘typical’? I haven’t tasted hundreds of Glenuries, most sadly, but I do seem to recognise these whiffs of old toolboxes and copper coins, these notes of old leather jacket (old greasy biker jacket), this unusual blend of patchouli and mint tea, and above everything, this feeling of having just opened a 25-box of fine Cuban cigars. And then we have a little ham and perhaps even mutton suet. So unconventional by today’s standards!
restaurant Palate
aw, this is perfect. Rather more on anything from a beehive for a start, getting then rather orangey and orange-blossomy, and then more herbal, in a very complex way. Leek and chives, lovage, perhaps even a very wee touch of garlic. And then the sweeter, rounder notes do come back, with orange blossom honey and a wee bit of fig. Impeccable
timer Finish
medium long, complex, rather cigary again, but there’s quite a lot of earl grey tea in the aftertaste. Touches of juniper and cumin too
