Color: Gold
A slightly fruity nose without exuberance. At the limit of discretion, the nose seems very balanced but very little complex. Some notes close to the cut grass supplemented with malt scents ... However, after several minutes at the bottom of the glass, new sensations, made of notes of hazelnut enhance the pleasue of the nose.
The mouth is much nicer than the nose. First some clear notes of chocolate milk, muesli and nuts contrast enough with the discretion of the nose.
A very balanced mouth without any aggression. Slightly more complex than the nose, the mouth is very nice.
The finish is long and warm especially marked by those rather unexpected for Glen Ord notes of mocha .
