Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep amber
air Nose
a little closed at first, but some fantastic notes of vanilla cream mixed with fresh mint develop after a few seconds… Lots of cooked cabbage and rubber/latex too. The latex gets then bolder and bigger. Quite some smoke, tar, roasted peanuts, omelette. Perhaps just a little sulphury. So special – and beautiful. Some nice grassy notes arrive after a moment... Wow!
restaurant Palate
what a punch! Dried tropical fruits, bacon, caramel, heather honey. Lots of tar, burnt cake etc. Hints of flowers jam, nectar… Stunning and extremely interesting. The casks must have been something! Top quality! The precursor of the a’bunadhs? In any case, this one is aromatically bolder and more complex that all a’bunadhs, in spite of its lower alcohol level. Just great! 91 points . MUSIC - Recommended listening: WhiskyFun favourite Nellie McKay uploaded a full gig of her's here . She rules! Please buy her music... CRAZY WHISKY ADS - THE IMPERIAL SAGA: BUYING BY THE CASE, BY ANY MEAN 1959 On a scooter... (tricky!) 1960 On a bicycle... (Yes, better walk) 1962 In a Falcon Futura... (Did the car maker pay half the budget?) 1962 Letting it being delivered... (Much more classical) 1967 On a water bicycle... (Getting crazier!) 1967 On a skidoo... (Even crazier!) Too bad they never used any Formula One car. TASTING - TWO INDIE CLYNELISHES Clynelish 19 yo 1983/2002 (57.5%, Dun Bheagan, Hogshead)
