Product description

Product description
Selected casks from the Balvenie Distillery are offered under the trade name "Burnside". In this case, these contained a so-called "teaspooned" Single Malt Whisky - a unique process in which a minimal amount of another malt is added. As a result, this Burnside was classified as a Blended Malt. The bottling matured for an impressive 18 years in a first fill sherry hogshead and combines the long maturation period with the intense influence of the sherry cask. The whisky was bottled at 49.5% to bring out the full flavour. The 18-year-old Burnside is a real rarity, as it is hard to find on the market.

Aroma: Sherry Chili

Geschmack: Chili Sherry Sweet

Abgang: :lang Sherry

Kommentar: Sorry, aber ich bin enttäuscht! Aroma fängt mit Gummibären an und dann Maoam, aber nur kurz. Ich finde erst nur Schärfe, erst nach Wassergabe kommt mehr...Früchte und Honig und Süße finde ich kaum... (mal sehen wie er in deri/vier Wochen ist)

Aroma: Oak Malt Sherry

Geschmack: Sherry Dried Fruit Dark Chocolate

Abgang: Sherry Cinnamon

Kommentar: Ich hatte mir mehr von dem Whisky versprochen, da ich die Schokoladen und Haselnussaromen nur sehr sehr entfernt wahrnehme. Der Whisky ist nicht ganz rund und der Alkohol ist für den geringen Alkoholgehalt doch spürbar.
