SMWS 30.55 (Glenrothes 15 yo 1992/2008)

2008, SMWS
Single malt - Speyside
White wine
57.5% ABV
Dram

Nose: Chocolate, butter, tea, green beans, oats, hints of peanuts.
Mouthfeel: Light body, watery, quite static.
Tasting: Sweet salty. Kiwifruit, sherry, brazil nuts, salted peanuts, bubble gum, hints of sea salt. Water brings out notes of toffee and red grape.
Finish: Long. Toffee, chilli.

Comments:

Quite a varied whisky, with lots of fruit and nut going on in it. The official tasting notes describe this as "very pink", tasting of lots of pink things, but all I got was a faint whiff of bubble gum. Quite salty, surprisingly.

Verdict:

I like this.
