Αξιολόγηση

Η γευσιγνωσία έγινε στις 10/10/2016

Όψη:

Clear deep golden with flecks of rose gold.

Μύτη:

Pungent buttery vanilla and spice with leathery pencil shaving oak, faint burnt coconut macaroon, pastry and tarmac. Ripe red apple and more pastry with water.

Στόμα:

Vinous fruit and Christmassy spice with salted caramel, old oak, generous vanilla and underlying pear drops and ripe plum fruitiness. Water amplifies white pepper spice and exposes a pleasing waxiness.

Επίγευση:

More vinous fruit in the medium length, spicy, buttery vanilla oak finish.

Συνολική αίσθηση:

An incredibly rare Lowland single grain Scotch whisky from the long since closed Cambus, this shows how exceptional a very old grain whisky can be with buttery vanilla, vinous fruit and Christmassy spice with salted caramel.
