TASTING NOTES – ABERLOUR CASG ANNAMH BATCH 3

Nose

The nose reveals sweet hints of red fruit, where cherry stands out. There are also aromas of raisins present, followed by nuances of cotton candy.

Palate

Particularly oily, it releases aromas of wood, red fruit and spices. Mildly dry.

Finish

Medium persistence. Red fruit (cherry as the main flavor) and spices are perceived.

Overall, the Aberlour Casg Annamh Batch 3 is a balanced and fairly intense Scotch whisky. The 48% ABV is definitely an excellent starting point. A well balanced dram, but at the same time far from what the brand standards are.

Rating: 85
