TASTING NOTES
By Whiskyfun.com
I think this was James MacArthur’s first series.
Colour: dark amber.
Nose (neat): extremely close to the OB, almost identical, with just a little more power but that may come from the bottles. Maybe also a tad farmier and less flinty but I’m really splitting hairs here. Just as terrific! With water: amazingly, it got even closer to the OB. No noticeable differences now and I’m starting to run short of superlatives…
Mouth (neat): again, this one is even bolder but also slightly sweeter than the OB, maybe a tad more medicinal (camphor) but other than that we’re exactly in the same league again. Hugely salty. Wow. With water: same thing. Maybe the finish is a tad more drying but I’m trying really hard to pick differences… 96 points.
