Tasting Notes: The Christmas Malt 2020 – 19 Years Old Blended Scotch Whisky (44.5%)
|
Colour: Medium sherry. Nose: Powerful aroma of red apples, toffee, raisins and sultanas. There’s also sherbet sweetness to boot. The toffee caramel really takes hold later on. Palate: Sweet apples, toffee, sherry with a little orange. Dark fruits and even darker chocolate. Finish: Spicy, feisty, finish that’ll certainly wake you up! The finish ends with some tobacco dryness. Overall: Once again, The Whisky Exchange haven’t let us down – a great Chrimbo dram – as long as you can leave it that long to drink it! |
