Duncan Taylor Auld Reekie 12 yr 46% 750ml The Big Smoke; Islay Malt Scotch Whisky (special Order 1 Week)
| Description: | Strange whisky, it seems like it's hesitating whether to be a peated or non peated whisky. The swimmingpool water experience at the end is quite surprising, though not very attractive. Nose 81 Initially a lot of fruit, less peat. After some minutes the peat and smoke come in clearly though. Also some earthy notes, moisty ground, moss. Then some bonfire smoke. Taste 80 Here it gets the typical peaty tones immediately, with some sal ammoniac and licorice, and a little pepper. Far away some fruity notes as well, orange, some smoke. Also some sugary sweetness. Finish 77 Still a little sal ammoniac and licorice, soft and short. Some tobacco and some smoke. Then suddenly some chlorine, like a gulp of swimmingpool water. |
