Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
quite amazingly, this one is very similar to the 11 yo despite its much older age. Maybe just a tad more on vanilla. Let’s try to wake it up with water… Less development than with the 11yo, it gets more closed, maybe even a little cardboardy (also notes of flour). Faint hints of aniseed and plain grass. Not the most exuberant nose ever, I’m afraid
restaurant Palate
again, we have roughly the same whisky as the Norse Cask at the attack, including the heavy nutmeg. Incredible… With water: same development as with the 11yo, only grassier. Long but harsh, grassy and slightly drying finish, with just hints of apple compote. Not bad at all but another one that’s quite average in my books. 75 points . MUSIC – Recommended listening: I have no idea why I wanted to listen to this rather old tune by Marlene Dietrich today... Sag mir wo die Blumen sind.mp3 ... You may prefer the English version , but I don't. Please buy Marlene Dietrich's works.
