Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
light amber. First nosing: very refined and elegant. Very nice! It then develops on some very empyreumatic notes, beeswax, resinous wood, cedar wood… Develops on some turpentine. It goes on with vanilla and caramel, and some hints of dried flowers. Superb!
restaurant Palate
the first mouth feel is full of smoothness but satisfying. Then lots of nutmeg and white pepper, a bit drying right at the start. Develops on passion fruits - the old bottle effect? Some notes of bitter orange and milk chocolate. In short, it’s classical, it’s balanced and it’s refined. A superb old whisky. The finish is medium long, that is, on white pepper and nutmeg again, with the soft tannins being well present. Another very good old Connoisseur’s Choice. 88 points (it would have been worth 90 points without the dryness). Coleburn 19 yo 1981/2001 (46%, Signatory Unchillfiltered, sherry, dist 22/10/81)
