“Another Saturday Night” and this time I am home. Catch-22 on Hulu. Winds are sweeping. So, I shall pure myself this Cambletown malt which was sampled to me by longtime whisky friend @PBMichiganWolverine. This was triple distilled, bottled at a sold 49.3% and aged in French Oloroso casks for 14 years (if my facts are sound). Sounds clean and sweet. A nice Burnt Sienna color in the glass. There’s an introductory light Demerara sugar nose. Raisins, over-ripened plumbs, pecans, cinnamon and worn, aged leather. Behind the sweet and fruit is an earthy dampness: petrichor. The palate is prickly and sweet. White pepper, tobacco (an unsmoked cigar) and ginger provide the prickly nature. Maple syrup, milk chocolate, vanilla and salted caramels provides the sweetness. There is a seesaw of prickly to sweet and back to prickly as you keep chewing and swishing. The flavors are all packaged in a medium body. The palate remains tingly for a spell and softens. Orange peel, leather, caramels, blueberries wrapped into a charcoaled woodiness which fades to a long oaky dryness with traces of tobacco. This dram has an interplay of fruit, sweet and gentle spice, through all the stages changes yet remains the same. This Hazelburn has one of the more complicated finishes. A solid, full flavorful whisky. [90/100][Tasted: 6/15/16]
