Lismore Single Malt Scotch 750ml
Description: | Color:. Light honey gold. Even after a dollap of water, the color was about the same. Lovely, lovely, inexpensive gold. Aroma:. Being a Speyside, I expected the nose to be sweet and floral. A pleasant surprise awaited me when I actually took a whiff. While the caramel, peat, and floral scents definitely were there, a noticeable aroma of the sea and even a little wood stands up and gets your attention and the peat was a little stronger than expected. Taste:. The body is light to medium with a slight lingering, not really a coating, like I said, a lingering on the tongue.After the aroma, I thought I knew what I was in for with the flavor. While the taste does stay close to the aroma, an additional nutty flavor and a heavier sweetness were nice surprises. After taking notes on the tasting, I looked at a few other reviews on teh Interwebs. Several others said exactly what I was thinking: With a little aging, this would be a great whisky. But then everyone agreed with the fact that for $20 per bottle ($15 in some places) that this is a great whisky. Thatswhere all the packaging money was spent!The finish is pretty quick. If I could change one thing about this whisky, it would be that the finish last a little longer. Not a deal breaker by any means, just me being picky. Region Description. \"Single Malt Scotch\" is generally associated with the higher end Scotch whiskeys, meaning its origin comes from one distillery and distilled in a pot still.
