Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
quite clean, porridgy, vanilled, with unusual fruity aromas (from juniper?) Also quite buttery. Smells more and more like genever. Definitely youngish but no foul aromas in this one. The peat isn’t very bold. A few winey notes after a while (more like dry white wine)
restaurant Palate
well, this is definitely young but also very woody (‘plank juice’). The juniper is well here, a little mustard, pepper... and sunflower oil, grains, peat smoke... Again it starts to taste like Dutch genever after a while. Not too bad I must say but very far from Scotch
timer Finish
rather long but the ‘genever’ makes it a bit unbalanced, drying and rawish at this stage. Oaky aftertaste. Well, not really my cup of aquavit I must say but I wouldn’t say this is flawed. And, after all, I’m no Swede (alas?) 70 points. Waldviertler Whisky (54.2%, OB, Austria, 35cl, circa 2007)
