Glenlivet 18 Year Old
Nose: Complex aromas of gristy malt, oaty biscuits and green
apples.
Palate: A subtle herbal, leafy note at fi rst, then the rich malt
arrives, with some classy oaky notes and a hint of spice. Slightly
restrained, but complex stuff .
Finish: Warm, rich and spicy.
Benriach 10 Year Old
Nose: Nutty, rich, damp earth. Almonds and hazelnuts, with
appealing green-apple freshness aromas of lemon and grapefruit,
lift ed by cinnamon, nutmeg and toff ee. Lovely and fresh.
Palate: Floral and spicy, with clean, bright fruit: green apples,
pears, honeysuckle. Th ere’s some spiciness in there, too – a little
black pepper, a hint of clove and a touch of crème brûlée.
Finish: Th e spiciness hangs on, but the overriding character is
fresh, clean fruit. Refreshing and lip-smacking.
