sengjc Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I demand a review of each please! 24.127 Nose: Sweet citrus, rather muted. Taste: More citrus, rock sugar, malty, a little nutty with a vein of bitterness, not as bright as I had hoped. Finish: Slightly rough edged on the finish, sweet but mild. Not bad but I was really hoping for more, being a cask strength Macallan and all. 120.7 Nose: UHU glue, varnish, intense floral sweetness. Taste:: Explosive and youthful. A melange of dark fruit - raisins, dates, blackcurrants. Dark chocolate. Very vibrant. Finish: Very long and intense. Sweet and winey, rose cordial. Ribena. Reminds of those blackcurrant gumdrops. Some heat from the alcohol but it's warming and gentle. 116.20 Nose: Bonito flakes, cured meat, a lot going on in this one. Taste: Mellow and complex - sweet, salty and smoky all at once. Smoked meat, coffeeish, light soy sauce, roast beef gravy with butter mixed in then sweet wood. Rich and satisfying. Finish: Long, very long and smooth. Salty tang and meaty. A very unique sensory experience. I like this one the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mr.T Posted July 9, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2015 Thoroughly enjoyed the ***** from the Barrel. First time tasting it. Very good and went really well with the Bolivar EL 2014 which was a pepper bomb. The fruity character of the drink helped offset the pepper in the smoke. Will purchase ***** again Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino30 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I've been gravitating away from Highlands towards the Islay single malts and found this one to be a terrific transition. Not too much smoke and peat. Paired well with the Siglo III. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShortFatHokie Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Yesterday, I finished off a bottle of Zaya and ended the day enjoying a glass of Bevlamo Moscato D'Asti with my wife...that's just about the only wine she will drink but boy, does she like it. Today, I enjoyed a couple of glasses of 2010 Nipozzano Riserva Chianti Rufina with a nice portion of baked ziti for lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
