Product description

Product description
The aroma of this Blair Athol is slightly sweet and shows a hint of smoke. Both are also more pronounced in the Taste. In the long finish, the sweetness is only subtly perceptible.
Under the Flora & Fauna Series, the owner Diageo bottles selected casks from a few distilleries, each individually as a Single Malt. The Flora & Fauna series is a true enrichment of the whisky scene and is regarded by collectors as an original bottling if there are no other original bottlings.

Aroma: etwas Rauch, etwas Süße
Peat Smoke Sweet

Geschmack: Auch im Geschmack rauchig und süß mit Sherrynoten
Peat Smoke Sweet Sherry

Abgang: Süße, Eiche und Sherry
Sweet Oak Sherry

Kommentar: Auch hier fehlen leider 3% Alkohol. Mit 46% und ohne Kühlfilterung sicher locker 4 Sterne. Bei dem Preis (40.- EUR) dennoch eine klare Kaufempfehlung
