#5043 10.01.2025 Enjoying some samples at home. Nose Medium intense, light wood, fruity, overripe, banana, spice, light glue, light ester. Palate Warm, round, balanced, light wood, faint smoke, fruity, overripe, light floral, light glue, light banana, medium spicy, spice. Finish Long and warm, light wood, fruits, light citrus, medium spicy. The empty glass has nice fruit, faint chocolate, light floral and light citrus notes. Needs to rest for a good while to really open up properly.
Pleasantly surprised on the nose. This is much more balanced than I expected given the low age. Very nice hints of marzipan and honey alongside quite some intense tropical fruits. Yet there are also some herbs and a solid pinch of chemical notes like glue and nailpolish. On the palate it also starts of quite nice and approachable with wood, fruits and bit of ester-ey goodness. Towards the finish, however, it does show its young(er) age with some harshness and a very woody and bitter finish, missing out on the decent complexity from the start. Positively surprised by this one, overall.
Franconian Tasting Gang on 19.04.2024 In the next unequal battle, two STC♡E of TWJ2015 and the top dog Cambridge 2005 (13yr) compete. Unfortunately, there is a clear difference in color, taste and intensity. But the TWJ still has a certain charm.
Arrived today (many thanks to Dr. Django) and tasted it straight away. And I have to say, it's fun. On the nose it is pleasantly fermented and fruity with a slightly sweet ester. It is smooth on the palate (the alcohol is well integrated) and initially releases sweet fruity aromas. These then change to a slightly woody, spicy side. The finish is of medium length. Compared to the older bottlings, it lacks a little of the complexity to be at the very top. Nevertheless, it remains a great bottling!
