1979 The Scotch Malt Whisky Society Glenury Royal Single Malt Scotch Whisky, Highlands, Scotland spanish brandyColour: Gold. Nose: Quite spirity and very oaky attack, but it then develops very nicely, on tea and gooseberries. It then gets a little minty. Playful and highly enjoyable, with a very long development on lots of various micro aromas. Mouth: A superb mix of fresh mint, white pepper and liquorice. Wow, thats pretty nice! Not monstrously complex but so satisfying, special, with a perfect roundness. Quite some marzipan. The finish is long, the malt

it occupies the bargain shelf at the supermarket or liquor store

nectars and honeys… I believe this is rather sublime and that lower strengths do go well with this kind of profile

Big and powerful but without ever being unbalanced or with any lopsided component

is a young oenologist with a long career in Rueda and in Ribera del Duero

peaches and honey and a finish of great freshness and purity

also nice notes of honey and overripe apples

dried fruits

And that is a pity: Denis-Mounié can be ranked amongst the best producers of cognac ever

This original wine shows all its skills well chilled (6-8 degrees) in combination with Asian cuisine

Nose:A high-octane malt

Slightly drying

The base whiskies are Speyside and Highland Malts
