Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
just superb. High-class vanilla pods (did you know vanilla pods grow on orchids?), with tropical fruits and minty touches. The combination is just perfect, no aromas are singing louder than the others. Papayas ‘on location’ (not in Western supermarkets), small pink bananas, a touch of eucalyptus, homemade custard, wee whiffs of thuja wood, as well as a little church incense (no fancy scents)…
restaurant Palate
it can happen that a lot of wood does not become a problem, and this is the case here. Sure there’s something drying and gritty, but that mingles so well with all this mint, peach skin, dry bananas, pollen, or papayas, that this rather symphonic old Glenlochy has become one of the most elegant whiskies I could try this year
timer Finish
medium, with some nutmeg, dried breadcrumbs (the oak speaking out), and rather green bananas this time. Perhaps even wacky ripe guavas
