Auchentoshan
Scotland
Single Malt
One of a pair of Travel Retail releases from the Auchentoshan distillery in the Lowlands - Blood Oak is a rather dramatically-named single malt in a combination of bourbon casks and red wine casks. They've done quite well with their wine-cask-matured expressions recently, with the 25 Year Old 1988 Wine Cask Finish greatly impressing Jake...
Juicy and rich with elegant wine notes, joined by a touch of golden barley.
Some classic red-wine spiciness starts to ramp up on the palate, with a little bit of Christmas-y clove. Citrus sits in the background.
Spicy and drying on the finish.
£4.32 - £29.69
Disappointed with this one. I didn’t get the same experience as other reviewers despite a great deal of excitement after buying a bottle at a duty free while travelling. Weak and boring. Better options in travellers exclusives.
A real cracker of a whisky to my tastes. Beats the living proverbial out of so many more expensive whisky's. However, each to their own
Sweet, sweet... S W E E T... Harsh and sweet on the nose. Some spice on the palate.. then harsh and burning and SWEET. If there was a whisky for toddlers this would be it. Ideal for setting my Christmas pud on fire.
From the opening I got red fruit and sweetness and the flavor continued in that direction. A very soft finish, but I'm okay with that. I'm looking forward to another taste after a few days of "breathing".
I thought it has an amazing aroma. If only the flavour matched. A bit light and without much substance to be honest.
