Coke & whisky? nope! Hello Three wood, oddly enough the wood is not very present here. I’ve held off on buying this based on the vastly different reviews. As a fan of Auchentoshan I grabbed it. While it does not offer the palate profile I typically enjoy, it is unique and deserves appreciation. There is more to be enjoyed here than meets the tongue.
One the nose, Dark berries mixed with vanilla and banana. I smell Blackberry, Raspberry and raisins. It’s smells sweet with a touch of spice.
The palate; caramel and banana greet you, followed by vanilla and fudge. It’s smooth and very sweet. As it makes it way down chilli and Tobacco appear with a touch of coco bean.
The finish gives a nice leather varnish with Carmel and fudge. It is pleasant without any burn. It makes an impression but does not last long.
This bottle has a similar texture to the other offerings from Auchentoshan. It is smooth with some surprises, tastes light and not overpowering.
