Bunnahabhain

Posted on April 28, 2014April 7, 2014 by Scotch N Sniff

Bunnahabhain 12 year

COLOR: Pale Gold
NOSE: Vegetal with a saline component. Water opens up a sweety smell and layers of honey, malt and light peat
PALATE: Lightly smoky, malt and the nose of honey and golden raisins comes through. A 2nd wave literally 45-60 sec after a sip you get a wave of flavors again with light peat, sherry and the sea
FINISH: Lengthy with dried apricots and the smell of cigar boxes

Bunnahabhain 12 year is a single malt worth purchasing, period. For beginning and long time scotch lovers alike, this is a delicious staple that should be in everyones cabinet

The Yamazaki 12 year is a well done interpretation of a Scotch Whisky from the Japanese company Suntory. A great perspective from across the world.

The Glenlivet

Posted on March 24, 2014March 17, 2014 by Scotch N Sniff

Glenlivet 18

COLOR: Russet, light orange and stained pine

NOSE: Golden raisins, orange peel. Red delicious apple. Sweet smelling with hints of spices like cinnamon and cardamom.

PALATE: Smooth, so smooth. Rich with a heavy almost chewy feeling coating the tongue. Fresh walnuts, mint and brewed coffee grounds. Water brings out the oak and increases the citrus.

FINISH: Woody and slightly licorice. The finish is long and reduces from spicy to sweet again.

Glenfiddich Solera Vat

Glenfiddich Solera Vat 15

COLOR: Bright tawny
NOSE: Marzipan, nutmeg with
hints of buttery crust. Slight herbal note
PALATE: Initially astringent w/light
polish remover. Powerful alcohol
that reduces with water and
releases caramel, toffee, and bready flavours
FINISH: Round and bold
in the mouth, but
the enjoyment falls off quickly
leaving you with a need for another sip.
