2008, SMWS

Single malt - Speyside
White wine
55.7% ABV
Dram

Nose: Orange peel, figs, salt caramel, black pepper, blueberries, hints of seaweed.
Mouthfeel: Light body, expands in the mouth, thickens slightly.
Tasting: Sweet salty. Oak, sherry, oranges, chocolate, raisins, brazil nuts. Water brings out more fruity notes - mango, kiwifruit, among others.
Finish: Long. Oak, leather, peaches, peanuts.

Comments:


Quite fruity and complex. After tasting 2 other whiskies in quick succession before this one, I probably wasn't able to appreciate it properly, particularly after adding water. Slightly salty too - add a little peat or smoke and it would be extremely delicious.

Verdict:

I like this.
