Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep amber - brownish
air Nose
the sherry is much more demonstrative now, the whole starting on notes of toasted bread and balsamic vinegar, prunes and chestnut honey... It gets much more complex after a while, with notes of hot breadcrumb, cooked red cabbage... And then something quite resinous, fir honeydew, camphor, embrocations... It's very smoky at that... And then we have all sorts of herbal teas (rosehip, hawthorn), then very old Bourgogne red wine, then parsley, then empty barrels (clean ones of course), then hints of lovage, then..., then... then... This nose is totally stunning
restaurant Palate
extremely playful and dry at the same time, with lots of oloroso but also a full basket of citrus fruits again (oranges, lemons, grapefruits...) as well as lots of medicinal notes: cough syrup, iodine... also liquorice sweets, tar liqueur, bitter chocolate... Again just fabulous. The finish is very long again, very satisfying, rich, bold, peaty and chocolaty... Near perfection, even if it's a rather extreme whisky. 96 points . Ardbeg 30 yo 1967/1997 (52.2%, Signatory, cask #1138, dark oloroso)
