Tasting Notes

Colour

light amber

air Nose

much more discrete than the Blue Hanger. Curiously grassy and spirirty at first, before some heavy winey/sherried notes emerge. Lots of ‘wine cask’ aromas. Old red wine, a little dusty. Old books, Gets quite spicy: clove, cinnamon, nutmeg. Keeps developing on cocoa

restaurant Palate

the nose was a little deceptive, but the first mouthfeel is superb. Bold and powerful, on mocha, dried orange, dark toffee and dark rum. Notes of bitter chocolate, sherry, crystallised orange. Develops on dried fruits (mostly apricot), grand marnier. Hints of old wood, old oak cask. Very long, dry and slightly winey finish. A good, solid cask strength Speysider. 86 points . WHISKY ADS- Here come the crazy Black and White dogs! Left: at the beach, 1970 - right in a bar, 1974 . Arf arf arf! MUSIC - Recommended listening: sung poem Whisky baby (mp3) by Canadian duo Whisky Child . A great blues, with great lyrics - somewhat a la Tom Waits. And Katharine Harris' voice! 'Whisky Child, what are you doing now?'. Don't miss them!
