Tuli näitä ostettua se 2 pulloa, vanhalla etiketillä (pullotettu ennen 2008)

Jos jollakulla sattuu olemaan uudempi versio, jossa neliskulmainen loota ja limited edition "A" -versio, niin olen kiinnostunut samplevaihdosta. Tässä välissä taisi olla versio, jossa ei tuota limited editionia ollut ainakaan sillä kultaisella A-kirjaimella.

Yllä oleva lasissa ja yhdyn täysin Sergen kommentteihi,vaikka kyseessä olikin Sergellä uudempi pullote:

Auchentoshan 21 yo (43%, OB, +/-2008)   Colour: gold. Nose: starts somewhat like the 18yo but gets then more expressive and more complex. And above all, much fruitier, ala Balblair. Huge notes of ripe bananas plus ginger and nutmeg, orange squash, bergamot, tea and overripe apples. Settles down a bit after that, getting maybe a tad more ‘mundane’. Vanilla fudge and warm butter, cereals, custard… Soft and charming dram on the nose. Mouth: the very same thing. Bananas, oranges, even mangos, grapefruits and passion fruits, all that encapsulated in a very fine oak. Milk chocolate, white pepper and hints of orange cake. Finish: longer than its bros, very clean, fresh, perfectly balanced. Comments: excellent whisky with a perfect profile between freshness, complexity and ‘age’. Beautiful fruitiness, and so drinkable! Remarkable improvement on Auchentoshan’s core range in our opinion. SGP:641 – 87 points.
