Tasting Notes

About:

Appearance:
Nose:
we could tell this scotch was special. Special enough that it moved us to start writing down our thoughts on all the scotch we’ve had since that point. The Reviews: Matt: Color: Amber, almost the color of a blood liqueur Nose: A lot of sweetness including orange, vanilla and a nice honey-heather. There is a honey, vanilla sweetness to the nose. The sherry finishing is pronounced here.
Palate:
A very nice candied sweetness and some orange. Finish: Toasted oak, with some anise. w/ Water: More wood, decent, better without SCORE: 95 Jim Color: Amber Nose: There is a honey, vanilla sweetness to the nose. The sherry finishing is pronounced here. Palate: It is a sweet whisky, with hints of nuttiness and dark chocolate. Finish: Fantastic in the finish. It’s long with essence of toasted oakiness. w/ Water: The addition of water really pronounces it’s overall woody nature, not bad but better without. SCORE: 92 [graphiq id=”42iBAJej3Jb” title=”Auchentoshan Three Wood Single Malt Scotch Whisky Overview ” width=”700″ height=”530″ url=”https://w.graphiq.com/w/42iBAJej3Jb” link=”https://whiskey.underthelabel.com/l/509/Auchentoshan-Three-Wood-Single-Malt-Scotch-Whisky” link_text=”Auchentoshan Three Wood Single Malt Scotch Whisky Overview | UnderTheLabel”]
