Tasting Notes

Tasting notes by Whiskyfun (Serge Valentin)
- Nose
  Starts on a blend of slightly wild farmy notes with some creamy café latte and vanilla crème. A little less coconut than when I first tried it but it’s still got something of an old single grain. Also a little chicken bouillon.
- With water
  The farminess gets a tad bigger, as usual. That won’t change. Some mint as well.
- Mouth (neat)
  We aren’t that far from the 1996, and this one isn’t even any bigger despite the much higher ABV. But it’s very creamy, sweet, with the same kinds of aromas – maybe a little more pineapple. To be honest, I may well have thought this one was younger, had I tried both blind. Good stuff anyway.
- With water
  Excellently fruity and candied. Very ripe gooseberries and strawberries.
- Finish
  Rather long, clean and just as fruity. And once again, a little salt plays with your lips….
- Comments
  Simply very good. Ultra-clean, very fruity Speysider with no signs of age. Just a tiny-wee tad more complex than the 1986. In other words, one more point. SGP:451 - 85 points.
