Tasting Notes

Colour

coffee – just the same

air Nose

surprisingly similar at first nosing (soy sauce and herbs) but getting much fruitier and spicier after a while. Lots of orange marmalade, cooked strawberries, a little pepper, cigar box, sandalwood, whiffs of incense… Slightly smoky and gingery. We have also a little clove, Chinese anise, also smoked ham. Really complex and rich but still very elegant. Rounder than the old 12 yo but just as great

restaurant Palate

very nice attack on bold notes of pineapple (soaked in rum) and very ripe melons but the whole is slightly weak (slightly disappointing mouth feel, lacking body). Now, the profile is great, with lots of sultanas, bitter chocolate, cocoa (slightly drying), violet and aniseed sweets, orange blossom, black toffee. Hints on mint drops. Gets just a tad drying after a (long) moment

timer Finish

medium long, really on sherry, roasted nuts and cocoa again, getting just a little cardboardy (tannins). A beautiful whisky, maybe just a tad too weakish and drying on the palate to make it over 89 points .
