Auchentoshan Three Wood

Cinnamon and chocolate. Spicy finish. Almost end of bottle.

Rich velvet

Amazing spicy kick

Improving as it opens and does have a decent mild flavor profile but not to memorable for me to buy again.

At the nose the only smell is typical Sherry (rotted red fruits) sweet and light. No strong alcohol hit. The first slip is very disturbing. The mix between the three casks express itself. The Sherry is obviously very present. Tiny hints of vanilla for a small-bodied dram. Slightly slightly oily. The overall taste is like a chemical detergent. Not of my taste. No salt or spices. Only a bit peppery, just for the saying. I usually enjoy Auchentoshan whiskies. My favourite one is an Auchentoshan, but this one is definitely not one I would recommend. Especially given the price. I wanted an Auchentoshan especially tonight, furthermore a Sherry but I'm not happy with this one. Adding water drops enhance a bit the vanilla taste and surprisingly the peppery aspect...

Fruity, grapey
