Tasting Notes

Colour

full amber

air Nose

deep sherry with some persistent perfumy notes: musk, lily from the valley, violets… Develops on burnt cake, hot caramel and old books. A bit dusty but nothing too strong. A bit sulphury. Cold cappuccino, overripe oranges. Nice but close to the limits for me

restaurant Palate

very strong and also perfumy – in a bad way this time (old official Edradour, anyone?) Rotten fruits, perfume, overcooked wine sauce, cheap liqueur… Too bad, the nose was great but the mouth is a bit awful, I’m afraid. 78 points . Bunnahabhain 6 yo 1997/2003 (59.4%, Scotch Malt Whisky Society, 10.56)
