Professionele reviews

Serge Valentin (78)

A bottle and a name that are deliciously outmoded. Welcome to 1982! Colour: pale gold. Nose: vanilla, malt, barley, a little sawdust, a little cardboard, biscuits, touches of oranges... In truth, had I tried this baby blind, I'd have said it's some rather solid 10 yo blended Scotch whisky. Mouth: sweet and malty, with overripe apples and some vanilla, plus a little honey and barley sugar. Not totally inspiring, perhaps. We're right between Glenfiddich 12 and Glenlivet 12, I would say. Finish: short, a tad cake-ier. Comments: rather fine but I wouldn't have bottled this 65€-baby at 40% vol. plus NAS.
