A CHANGELING

Not an Angelina Jolie movie, but a powerful Ileach matured in Ex-Bourbon for 10 years and bottled at 57.7%.

Panel's Tasting Note: "All malts change in the glass - this one more than most! It begins clean, fresh and mineralic, with a soapy edge, then gains soft toffee and charcoal, with heather pollen, then moves towards treacle toffee, dentists' mouthwash and... prawn cocktail crisps! The taste, at this stage, is sweet, salty and tarry (toasted barley; a hot kiln), with smoky bacon crisps. Water raises exhaust fumes, railway engines, Hippie Afghan coats, goats, a smoking Bakelite plug, Plasticine, melting vinyl records, bonfire ash; the taste now soft, sweet, salty, clay-like, with malt in the ashy finish. From the Prince of Wales' favourite distillery."

Drinking Tip: "Contemplating the sunset."
