IB Cadenheads 20yo 52.1% - Rosebank

Postby The Craw » 08 Nov 2009, 11:08

One of 269 from a Bourbon barrel, bottled June 2009. FWIW a Bible high-scorer of 96.

N - Orange oil, grapefruit, nettles, lemon rind, gooseberries and fresias;
T - Lemon bon-bons, delicate cinammon spice;
F - Bitter lemon and chocolate orange.

(I'd avoid water with this one as a wee drop over-accentuated the really sharp and bitter notes, for me anyway)

A very nice Rosebank, for sure, but, with increasing rarity and prices, give me a Bladnoch over this any day.
