Tasting Notes by galg

Nose: Starts a little bit sharp on the nose. lemony, then ,malty and sweeter notes of fruit. With time in the glass, those sharp notes become weaker. Some herbal notes as well. Water accentuates the wood, and citrus/spice.

Palate: The palate is spicy,peppery and fruity, with the malty notes arriving later on. with water, the palate gets more chocolaty, then bitter.

Finish : Medium Chocolate, butter, and oak. With water added bitterness is felt.

Bottom line:

My first Auchroisk, and i liked it quite a bit. This is a good dram and definetly worth the money. I’d love to sample some more ‘Roisks as to be able to compare….
