very dusty, nutmeg, cocoa powder. Develops on some very fragrant notes, pear spirit, dill, peony, Kölnerwasser… Hints of strawberry liqueur, fresh pinepapple. Quite youthful!
restaurant Palate
very nice attack, on dried fruits, plants (angelica) and spices. Some liquorice roots, gentian again. A superb balance. Goes on with dried ginger, mangoes… Really beautiful, and what a perfect balance. This one has been bottled exactly at its peak, I like it a lot. Besides, the finish is very long and spicy, with always tons of liquorice. An excellent malt, worth 88 points on my scale . Nutmeg MUSIC - Let's play a little game if you like: have a listen to The Yayhoos playing Highway Junkie (mp3) and try not to move your feet - and even your toes. Impossible, right? You loose! ;-) But please buy their CDs if you like their most energizing country-rock. Last minute: just found another nice - yet heavier - track: California (mp3). Who sang 'Rock'n'roll will never die' again? January 5, 2005 TASTING - TWO GLENALLACHIES (MY GOD!) Glenallachie 12 yo (40%, OB, 1980s)
