Review by Royal Lochnagar

« This review is also available in Dutch »
Colour

Deep amber.

Nose

Deep and complex. Green and mossy, with brambles, damson jam; sawn wood and mint-fresh pine resin; behind lie deep toffee notes (treacle toffee?) and beyond that a freshness that balances the wood. Changes and develops continually. With water, varnish advances, as in an artist’s studio. Some coffee grounds, toffee, baked apple tart. Overall, sweet and deep. With slightly more water, a waft of dry sherry.

Palate

Smooth mouthfeel. Fresh wood notes (sawdust). Hint of sweetness, drying quickly.

Finish

Sharp, well balanced.

Note

Rich and perfect for enjoying after dinner, this is an elegant and sophisticated malt for the connoisseur. All bottles are individually numbered to make this an extra special gift.
