this one is rather different, probably less ‘clean and natural’. Some rather heady smells of wet dog mixed with hot butter and fudge (poor dog!), hay, pu erh tea, semi-dried kelp, very, very organic. It gets then sort of ‘chemical’ (lyophilized lemon juice, icing sugar) with also notes of tar, rubber band. It’s much more ‘perverse’ than the Strathblair, but I must confess I like it just as much. Hints of tangerine peel… starts very spirity and austere, with a profile that’s very close to the Hart Bros, just a little more spirity (pear juice and coffee). Now, it’s probably less ‘animal and organic’, and more mineral and ashy. Notes of Alka-Seltzer, rubbed lemon peel, newly cut grass, fresh green beans… We have then quite some fresh mint, eucalyptus, maybe a little turpentine… The development is much longer than its younger siblings’, in fact. Chalk, iron, ham, horse sweat… Having said that, it’s maybe less ‘pure pleasure’. Let’s try to add a few drops of water now: no further development but no deterioration either. Maybe just more marzipan

a, now it’s frankly better. Bolder, more complex, with a superb sweetness mixed with tons of rather sharp citrusy notes, smoke and a pinch of salt. Lots of body! There’s also a little cake, buttered caramel and fudge again, smoked tea, marzipan and mastic… And more and more salt on your lips. Really excellent, and the finish is very long and very impregnating, with quite some liquorice. Great, a superb young Bowmore again, with no unnecessary make-up! 88 points . Bowmore 16 yo 1989/2005 (53.4%, Dewar Rattray, sherry cask #1090, 262 bottles) Couleur: pale straw lots of power, lots of body and lots of citrus. Crystallized tangerines, orange juice, pink grapefruit, all that mixed with a dash of icing sugar that makes the whole very lively. Keeps developing on big, bold notes of grappa (or better, marc de gewürztraminer), pear spirit, but also something very vegetal, grassy (grapes clusters) and, above all, lots of salt. Also liquorice, lapsang souchong, something quite resinous and waxy (waxed cardboard, like they sometimes use for yoghurt?), herbs (thyme and rosemary)… With water: same, no further development and no deterioration – maybe just a little more sweetness. The finish is long, balanced, on a great sweetness and some very resinous and peaty notes – and again something like aspirin or Alka-Seltzer. Anyway, an excellent recent Bowmore despite the slightly disturbing notes of aspirin. 89 points . CRAZY WHISKY ADS - THE AD WAR WITH MALTMADNESS GOES ON... Good , after Johannes' 'genuine fake ad' for Johnny Walker Red Label (on maltmadness ) I thought I should publish these extremely rare ads that ran in the famous magazine Jamaica Gleaner only twice, I believe (around 1973 - or was it 1972?). Johannes, your turn if you dare... MUSIC – Recommended listening - Do you know the big, big sound of Austin's Ponty Bone ? Try for instance Now's the Time (Do What You Do Best).mp3 and its interwoven guitar licks. Punchy, don't you think? So, please buy Ponty Bone's music...
