Invergordon 34 YO (Thompson Bros)

Invergordon 34 YO (Thompson Bros), 41 %

This old single grain whisky has been matured in a refill cask. That’s all I know.

The Invergordon 34 YO (Thompson Bros) will be available in Norway next week at NOK 1399 (20886601).

Nose: A candy shop with dark undertones. The lights have been turned off, and the clown in the corner is about to wake up. He is holding a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolate confectionery. Sweet, floral and just a little unsettling.

Taste: Medium bodied. Back in the candy store, with vanilla and fruity hard candy. Tropical fruits emerge next, with honeydew melon in particular standing out.

Finish: Long, but a little shy, perhaps even timid. Light tropical fruits and vanilla linger gently.

Comment: Sweet, playful and slightly sinister.
