MAKES YOU STRONG LIKE A LION
10 year old rum at 75.3% from a Refill Sherry Butt?
Panel's Tasting Note: "To start the neat nose is melted brown sugar in butter followed by a surprisingly clean wood smoke, like a distant Arbroath smoke house. In addition we get antiseptic notes like germolene or a lemon scented savlon next to aromas of red clay in a pottery. To taste it feels like being in a sauna, sitting on the highest bench during an ‘Aufguss’ whilst eating wasabi. With the addition of water a foamed neoprene wetsuit turning quickly into salty butter on burnt toast. With time shellfish aromas of mussels and scallops develop. To taste, now intense sweet like a croissant with butter but also savoury bacon notes and fragrant incense sticks of sandalwood in the finish."
Drinking Tip: "With or in place of a Jagerbomb."

O&R Probably Speyside's Finest 45 Year
$449.99
Distillery's Tasting Note: "The nose opens with an appealing rich and "darkly" spiced character carrying a fresh leather & ground nuts (hazelnuts?) quality. The palate is mouth coatingly spiced with soft wood tones and runs to black cherries in alcohol and dark chocolate. The finish is long, gently oaked, and remains warmingly spiced with a "candied ginger coated in (more) dark chocolate"-style."
Berry's Own Bowmore 1994
$86.03
My Tasting Note: Nose: very herbal with fresh green grass, salty and medicinal notes, cured fish and clean smoke; shortbread with granular sugar topping, candied lemon, something a little rubbery and burning grass; steamed mussels in broth, Salt n Vinegar chips and rubber tubing; Palate: a little ashy with clean burning wood smoke, liquid honey and vanilla; the palate shows more steamed mussels in a very salty broth with a sweet sugary backbone that never really disappears; the whisky has an oily-mouth-coating character and some balancing acidity; Finish: fine cigar tobacco, gently peat oils and sweet toasted oak, with clove and more clean wood smoke.
Tomatin 30 Year
$377.99
"A rich and elegant non chill filtered single malt with intense fruity aromas which develop in the mouth alongside some more robust spices which emanate from the combination of American and European oak casks. Aroma - Intense juicy aromas arouse the senses - green apples, passion fruit, honey dew melon, blackcurrant and blueberries. Citrus notes come to the fore, all the while a candy sweetness drifts along with hints of polished leather in the background. Palate - gooseberry, ginger and hazelnuts make way for spicy oak which hits the middle of the tongue. The oak is balanced beautifully by a honey sweetness that drifts to the back of the palate. Finish - Long, clean and pleasurable," according to the team at Tomatin.
