| Review #246 |
This single
cask whisky is from the series Fort William Limited and only 258 bottles were
made. Normally color doesn’t mean shit when I am tasting whisky, but this color
makes me thirsty! Some dried fruit comes to mind at first in the smell with a
touch of orange/citrus. Some light floral notes in the background.
The taste
is very heavy with a mix of dried fruits and nuts. I think there are some notes
of from the wood that is a bit off. I can’t quite put my finger on it. Maybe
tannins… It is not ‘bad’ off note, it is just not my taste. The oak really
shows in the finish and lies great with the dried fruits. The best thing about
this whisky.
For a
bottle that sells for hundreds of pounds, I must say I am a bit disappointed.
But that is just my opinion and luckily we are all different! Water calms it
down, but doesn’t change the expression. I will give this 81/100 (20/20/21/20).
