Just in time for the first sun rays and the Whisky Fair in Limburg are this week from Scotland, two new single malts for my Whisky Chamber came bottlings :
A new Highland Park and a mild, fruity Mortlach as representatives from the Speyside.
is the Mortlach - I think - great for sunny and balmy summer evenings and the powerful Highland Park rather for a "cool" summer night: so no matter how the summer - we are ready.
Tasting notes
TWC Mortlach
19 years, from 1990 to 2010 46% vol, Sherry Butt refill
region. Speyside
color: light gold
Aroma: a sweet fruity, pear & mash (slightly acidic), malt
Taste: fruity pear (pome fruit), slightly sweet
finish: medium length with a round sweetness - it needs some air to unfold
TWC Highland Park
46% vol, Sherry Butt
region. Islands
Color: Copper
Aroma: intense smoke, sweet herbs (honey) and clearly Toffee ( Fudge)
Taste: herbs, a round of sherry sweetness, fire ruin
finish: toffee and a touch of "Fire Ruin" remain very long on the palate liable
The first "Vortasting" it is this weekend with whiskey friends in Munich provide. I look forward to their impressions.
