Hannah Whisky Merchants Lady of the Glen ‘Rare Cask’ Lochindaal 2007 (16 year old) 59.4%
Bourbon Barrel/ Tawny Port Finished Cask 3372
Dist: Nov 2007 Btl: Mar 2024
Tasted May 2024
A crisp but oily nose which is fresh and coastal with hints of marzipan, peat and cherry lozenges. With time a little baked banana, hyacinth, coffee, seaweed and vanilla appears. It must have been finished for all of 5 minutes in the Tawny Port cask as the cask notes are almost imperceptible, which I’m not complaining about as it displays plenty of lovely spirit character.
The palate is intense, herbal and briny with dusty peat and duty port tannins. Menthol and medicinal peat appear along with hints of cherries, liquorice and vanilla. Superb depth and intensity. Salty, oily barley finish with oodles of coastal fruit, vanilla, coffee’d tannin, peat, menthol, cereal, banan skin, syrup and roasted nuts. The complexity level here is off the charts!
A drop of water makes the nose denser and oilier. Less peat and more vanilla oak. On the palate it brings out some lithe citrus. Like the nose there is less peat but more cereal and vanilla. Softer, with a little dusty parma violet note now and a little less complexity on the finish.
