The Scotch Malt Whisky Society – SPRING CASK SALE – UP TO 20% OFF!

Description: A light, sweet and floral aroma greeted the Panel. Sugar dusted fruit flavoured bonbons and candy corn were mentioned before a picture full of promise emerged; sitting in the garden sipping on a Lemon Drop Martini and listening to the bees buzzing in the laurel hedge. The taste had honey-roasted peaches with lavender ice cream whilst the overall impression was one of an almost perfect balance between delicate, perfumed sweetness and dry wood spice.
Price: £223.00

Description: Heady, rich and deep – we sniffed out caramelised mango slices, salted pineapple, subtle citrus, barley sugars, and coconut panna cotta, plus flowers and tobacco on polished wood. The palate was zingy and relaxing at the same time – kumquat, orange marmalade, puff candy, Moffat toffees and pears in chocolate, with chewy oak and leather – like an exclusive library – old but exciting. The reduced nose suggested raspberry ripple, orange blossom, glace cherries and an elegant woman in leather trousers. The palate now had Black Forest gateau, moist ginger cake and Cadbury’s Flake in an ice-cream, with very subtle hints of aniseed and Euthymol
Price: £92.00

Description: A lively and self-assured chatterbox of a dram, it enthusiastically spread the gossip about the stewed apples and the pears and the minor occurrence with the fine ladies perfume. Not to mention all the news about sandalwood and cedar wood and how they should spice up their life with a bit of cinnamon stick and ginger. Tingly pineapple, camphor and a hint of eucalyptus playfully rolled off the tongue and introduced a musky perfume mixed with crunchy leaves and sweet wine gums and vanilla.
Price: £89.00

Description: This provided us with a delectable nose of butterscotch, candied oranges, mango soaked in bourbon and jam on scones, with pipe tobacco depth and Kendal Mint Cake freshness. The palate had silky, creamy textures and flavours of toasted coconut and chestnuts; lychee, banana and cooked fruits, with Rooibos tea and tingling woody spice. With water, the nose awakened orange blossoms, Cape gooseberries, lemon pancakes and apricot jam, becoming quite vibrant and full of promise. The palate, on the other hand, conveyed a relaxing, comforting, postprandial Sunday afternoon feeling, with strawberry and cream candies, vanilla bonbons, honey nut cereal and whisky-soaked raisins.
