Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14 Year
Single Malt — Speyside, Scotland
Reviewed February 1, 2021 (edited February 9, 2021)Nose: light, some apple and lemon maybe some vanilla oak notes. When sniffing it in the bottle the fruit notes are very strong and pear or grapes can sometimes be smelled too. Taste: Classic sort of "scotch" taste, clean, sweet oak and a light smoke with some fruit notes. It's sweet for a scotch and pretty smooth but also not particularly complex. Some sweet wine grape on the finish. Overall:Incredible nose, but lacking in flavor. Still very smooth but not great value. -
Nose: molasses and heavy Chocolate, almost like a tootsie roll Some grassy Vegetel notes once arreated in the glass Taste: Mouthfeel is thinner than what you expect from the smell, sort of Coco Vegetel sweet mollasesy flavor. Overall: 8/10 tasty and solid but definitely missing some flavor/complexity for sipping
