28.11.2017 Meeting up at a friend's house each one bringing a bottle. Pretty surprised that there were 3 Cadenhead's in the pot. Notes Dark in colour. Nose Fresh, wood, light roasted, light mint, pine, faint wood and tar, light nutts. Palate Oily, balanced, wood, light roasted, light floral, light rubber, cherry, light caramel, faint tar. Finish Long and warm, light rubber and tar, dried fruit, light floral. Extra note ABV pretty well integrated.
La bouteille vient d’être ouverte 😍. Sur le premier nez les marqueurs sont là mais les 70% ne sont pas cachés non plus! Au nez: on est bien sûr un Heavy mais très élégant élégant. Les hydrocarbures classique se mélange à une fumée subtile, léger poivré blanc, mangue un peu caché. On bouche on retrouve la, même chose, la mangue est parfaitement mûre, la longueur est interminable. Une magnifique mâche. On sent les % certes. Mais c’est excellent. Su-perbe
Flawless Caroni 2000 with a typical profile. Some hints of moroccan pastries add more complexity. Probably the best from this vintage !
Mentholig, frische Nase, die an Gin erinnert. Gefällt mir persönlich nicht so gut. Am Gaumen verschwindet die Gin-Note und eine tolle Cremigkeit und Würze kommt zum Vorschein. Insgesamt überwiegt aber der negative Eindruck der Gin-Nase.
