we have an indie Macallan that’s quite close to the ‘good old’ official sherried ones, for once. It starts on some superb notes of espresso and praline together with a great, elegant sherry – not of the hyper-vinous kind at all. Rather smoky again, almost peaty, developing on hot chocolate cake, hot caramel, high-end rum… Hints of balsamic vinegar, plum jam, getting then very nutty (roasted peanuts, pecan pie…) Extremely elegant, a very classy Macallan, not far from the best old 18 yo ’s this one starts on the usual, most enjoyable blast of tropical fruits (mainly pineapples and pink grapefruits, followed by a little passion fruit.) It gets then a little milky and feinty (mashed potatoes), and finally a little peaty (clean farmy aromas, hay). No sign of woodiness, which is quite incredible – and maybe little fern and wet moss. Pretty simple but flawless and typically ‘1968 Bowmore’

creamy but not too much, nervous but not too much, with lots of dried fruits that assault your palate. Superb! Candied tangerines, dried bananas, orange marmalade… Something very smoky again (smoked tea). Wow, it’s almost exemplary. Lots of praline, notes of Alexander cocktail, maybe a little rubber – just a little. Lots of body, for sure… Goes on with strawberry pie, mocha, fruitcake… Maybe it gets then slightly too spirity and sort of rough (to water down or not to water down?) but otherwise it’s perfect. And the finish is long, like if it was a mixture of Contreau with smoked almonds and peanuts. An excellent surprise – well, maybe not a surprise. 91 points . CRAZY WHISKY ADS - IT'S ABOUT COLOURS Left, Johnnie Walker Black Label 1973 - Right, The Macallan 2003. Lots of progress within 30 years, don't you think? MUSIC – Highly recommended listening - The Destroyers , aka Vancouver’s Dan Bejar, doing European Oils.mp3 . This guy seems to know his early Bowie, Ayers and Dylan by heart, plus he's got his very own, 'precious' musical world, so I can't see why he wouldn't pull huge success - if he doesn't already - including in Europe ;-). Please buy his music (his CD 'Bitter Honey' will be out on February 21st)! (via Merge Records ). January 30, 2006 TASTING - TWO 1968 BOWMORES Bowmore 35 yo 1968/2004 (40.5%, The Whisky Fair, bourbon hogshead #3818, 150 bottles) Colour; straw quite some body in spite of the low alcohol! Starts quite sweet, fruity and gingery. Nice notes of wax, cardboard, orange juice and caramel crème. Not exactly nervous but still very enjoyable. Goes on with some notes of tangerines (as expected), oriental pastries, orange cake and marmalade… The finish is rather long – again, longer than expected, getting a little spicy. A classical old Bowmore, maybe a tad simple but not tired at all. 89 points . Bowmore 37 yo 1968/2005 (42.8%, Duncan Taylor, cask #1429)
