Tasting Notes

Colour

light straw

air Nose

rather punchy, starting on some toasted bread and gin. Very grainy and very herbal, getting even sort of violent. Beer, sour wood, cider… Also some cardboardy notes, porridge, Schweppes, Alka-Seltzer… Yeah well, I’d say this one lacks a little sweetness, to say the least. Some hints of violet perfume

restaurant Palate

a little spirity and quite peppery and woody. Also a little sweetish and again, rather sour and biting your tongue a bit. Again a slightly steely taste. I wouldn’t say it’s perfectly balanced, but it’s not bad whisky, far from it. It just lacks aromas and flavours, and is perhaps a bit too close to ‘alcohol’. Long, powerful, salty finish, with also some pineapple (some fruit, finally!) 78 points . Clynelish 12 yo 1992/2004 (46%, Signatory Unchillfiltered, hogshead #6306, 404 bottles)
