A tropical expression from The Glenlivet, for Caribbean Reserve a portion of the whisky was finished in casks which previously held Caribbean rum. The distillery folks suggest adding a splash of coconut water, though we reckon a malty twist on a Mai Tai is on the cards!
Honeyed orchard fruit, tinned pear and fried banana.
Ripe tropical fruit and brown sugar, along with cinnamon pastries.
Pineapple upside down cake.
May as well be drinking Jameson. Harsh taste. The people here calling it smooth must not have the palate or experience with a truly good quality single malt.
Quite a nice drop, easy to drink and has an interesting combination of flavours. Smooth with a sweet after tase (but not too sweet). If you want to try something different, it's good. Decent value for the money, IMHO. But not suitable for purists. And there is no point in comparing this to a bottle that is twice the price (or more), as that's not what it is... compare it to something similar in value, and you'll be happy with this drop.
Harsh taste, strong aroma of alcohol as in meths! If your hoping for something akin to The Balvenie Caribbean Cask your going to be sorely disappointed!
Got bought a bottle as a present. Overly smooth with an manufactured sweetness which leads to a lingering aftertaste. Needs a mixer. Really not good at all.
Good flavour, with a hint of Caribbean as described
