Avaliação e degustação


Experimentado em 23/09/2015

Aparência:

Clear, deep golden amber.

Aroma:

Buttery with overripe banana, old leather and freshly cut grass. With water char-grilled pepper, elegant toasty oak and vanilla emerge.

Sabor:

Rich and fruity with characterful vegetal and smoky peat, and chamois leather. Water amplifies vegetal notes with salty seaweed.

Aftertaste:

Smoky dried fruit and leathery finish.

No geral:

Stocks of this very rare and sought after malt are dwindling and every year the price what little Port Ellen that survives rises quicker than a Mayfair penthouse. A bottle of this 2015 release is eminently more affordable with surprising fruitiness and vanilla for a 32 year old whisky.
