Guillon Cuvée 42

Guillon Cuvée 42

Official bottling
Single malt - Champagne-Ardenne
Amber gold
40% ABV
Dram

Nose: White grapes, oolong tea, raisins, milk chocolate, prunes, hints of roast pork. 
Mouthfeel: Light body, thickens slightly, turns sticky, syrupy. 
Tasting:  Sweet. White grapes, raisins, prunes, blackberries, hints of peaches. 
Finish: Short. Cloves, white grapes, prunes, brown paper. 

Comments: 

Aged in Burgundy casks. This is grapey and rich, but still quite light. Plenty of white grapes (Penderyn like) but allied to a fruitiness and spiciness all its own. I have no idea where this distillery is, or its history, but it produces reasonably good whisky.

Verdict:

I like this.
