67
- Nose
- Sweet and sugary. Candylike. A floral note. Syrup with a drop of orange blossom.
- Palate
- Sweet and oaky. Velvety texture; reminds of a VSOP cognac. Watery in the middle. As if syrup had been added to the spirit.
- Finish
- Tangy, bitter, abrupt.
- Comment
- Another example of a “worked upon” whisky. Rather dismantled in its sweetness.
60
- Nose
- This is different, though not in a good way. Solvent, bubblegum and acetone.
- Palate
- Better than the nose. Perfumed with a firm structure. A little jangly on the finish. Seems young, green and slightly sappy. In time the solvent reappears.
- Finish
- Somewhat abrasive.
- Comment
- An explosion at a beauticians. Nail varnish raining down while the bored Saturday assistant chews bubblegum amidst the chaos.
