SMWS 73.33 (Aultmore 10 yo 1997/2008)

2008, SMWS
Single malt - Speyside
White wine
58.7% ABV
Dram

Nose: Butter, lemons, sea salt, olive oil, plums, hints of chocolate.
Mouthfeel: Medium body, velvety, thickens in the mouth. With water, turns even more thick and velvety (very surprising!).
Tasting: Salty sour. Lemons, olive oil, menthol, sea salt, chocolate, hints of plum. With water, sweeter, more orange peel and marmalade than lemon.
Finish: Long. Coconut, olive oil, hazelnuts, plums.

Comments:

Takes water very well, which is a little atypical of the SMWS whiskies. Nice and fruity with water, without, it's a little savoury and minty. I could drink this one all day, slightly diluted. Very tasty indeed.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
