TASTING NOTES - WOLFBURN SMALL BATCH N.177

Nose

Creaminess is the most important aspect of this nose, which is enveloping yellow fruits such as apples and pineapple in melted butter, caramel and demerara sugar. Cake sensations, and not a diet one, with a touch of orange.

Palate

Palate is even sweeter, again with the demerara sugar emerging very evident and bold. Fortunately, there is also a slightly acidic notes on the yellow fruit, which is refreshing and helping the sip, balancing the sweetness. Very rich baked apples, custard, crème brulee.

Finish

Medium-short, leaving the evident sweetness for a slightly bitter aftertaste, on fresh spices. Unexpected, a nice reviving touch.

Wolfburn Small Batch N.177 is an interesting product; from one side the typical creaminess of the far north distillery can be recognized, from another perspective the rum casks have influences boldly the final product with some not veiled sweetness. Coherent with the casks, however maybe not the deepest of the products, with a truly evident sweetness.
