General description

Its a very prestigious presentation - the quality is evident & starts with the purchase $$$$. Great colour & quite generous around the Glencairn. It has a gentle soft, fruity nose which invites a taste - There's a richness, honey, some gentle spice & a perfectly balanced, nicely warming finish, with a gentle wood well back when your after that next sip!
I've enjoyed a few, "full on", smoky drams recently, but this is fruity & spicy & tasty - full bodied & balanced - It is Not a sherry bomb, minimum bourbon influence & is an absolute winner for me.

Nose

Apple peels, fruits, toffee - brown sugar. Magnificent!

Palate

Creamy & generous, warming, a very adult sweetness, a woody honey, gentle pepper spice ??. I got wine, not sherry?

Finish

Beautiful - delicate & balanced - white wine hint, a nice aged oak ?

General description

Ein milder, eleganter und vordergründig harmonischer statt komplexer Whisky.
Heute im Vergleich zum Aushentoshan 21 getrunken. Beide haben eine sehr ähnliche Ausrichtung. Der A21 ist etwas kräftiger dafür aber auch ca. 30 € teurer.

Nose

Angenehm und gut balanciert, florale Einflüsse, lieblich, Bourbon Fass, leicht nussig.

Palate

Sehr weich und rund. Vanille, nussig, Trockenfrüchte.

Finish

Lang, leicht würzig am Ende und trockener.

General description

Das Aroma erinnert an Apfelkuchen, und dahinter ganz leicht die Bourbon-typische "Klebstoffnote". Mit längerer Zeit im Glas verstärkt sich die Vanille und verdrängt den Apfel. Ab und zu schimmern Trauben durch. Für 18 Jahre wenig Komplexität.

Im Mund wunderbar weich und fruchtig aber noch immer zu simpel für sein Alter.

Der kräftige aber zu kurze Abgang entschädigt dies allerdings und lässt neben Äpfeln auch endlich Sherry-typische Aromen nach Rosinen durchscheinen.

Kein Komplexitätsmonster, aber immerhin leichte Steigerung zu den jüngeren Abfüllungen, leider aber weniger Sherry Einfluss als der 12jährige Lasanta

Tasted blind. This is very good scotch. Fruity notes of pear, apple, baking spices and vanilla. A bit thin in the middle prevents the 5th star. $115 in NC...a bit steep for a daily sipper.

General description

Nice, light dram ideal for summer evenings.

Nose

Pears and vanilla with some sweet notes, finally giving over to the tiniest hint of distant smoke.

Palate

Wood, apples and vanilla with subtler hints of honey and faint caramel.

Finish

Long smooth finish where the hints of smoke appear as the fruit fades away.
