Review #269 |
From
Bartels comes this single cask bottling from a Bourbon hogshead. A bit sweet in
the smell mixed with some grassy and floral notes. It is a bit more fruity than
the normal triple distilled Auchentoshan whisky from Bourbon barrels.
Some spices
and honey (and floral) sweetness mixes at first in the taste. A little alcohol,
but nothing noticeable. Again some fruity notes appear here in the finish. Like
the sweetness you get from dried fruits, but without that heavy dried fruit
flavor.
A lot of
fruit influence considering it comes from a Bourbon hogshead. I really like the
sweetness that varies in all of the stages. I know it is cask strength, but I
would recommend being careful with water. I will give this 85/100 (21/21/22/21).
