The nose is rich and complex and reveals nice floral notes, with a hint of spices.
In the palate, the same complexity without any aggressiveness and a mix of malted sweetness and some slightly spiced notes.
A nice finish, not too long however, with spicy and woody hints. A very good bottle.
2005The smell reveals undoubtedly a Speyside. With all ingredients.
The first impression in the mouth is that there is some lack of smoothness. I found it rough. As all my tasting happen blind, and because I quote the whisky before I know from which distillery it comes, I was disappointed to notice I just gave 15 to a Glenlivet, and to an 18 years old Glenlivet... I guess it deserves another tasting...
2003The second tasting was completely different. The nose is rather rich and spicy.
The palate is complex and rather smooth (unlike my impression at the first tasting).
A rather long finish. A good bottle.
