Tasting Notes
To The Eye
In appearance, each bottle has a crisp golden honey hue. What gives whisky its colour? The maturing process over 12 years as the liquid comes into contact with the barrel. The longer a whisky matures will determine its colour and flavour profile.
To The Nose
A Single Malt Scotch whisky with a distinctive aroma of crème brulee to the nose with a burst of citrus and then the signature nuttiness and green leafiness you would expect from Auchentoshan.
To The Tongue
A smooth whisky taste with sweet notes along with hints of tangerine and lime characterise this 12 year old.
To The End
This particular whisky offers a gingery and slightly dry finish with a pleasant, lingering nuttiness.

Triple distilled, twice charred, Irish Whiskey
Charring is an age-old method for invigorating barrels to intensify the taste. Jameson Black Barrel is our tribute to our coopers, who painstakingly give their bourbon barrels an additional charring to reveal their untold richness and complexity. Because every barrel contains secrets; the trick is coaxing them out.
Time spent maturing in these barrels leads to intensified aromas of butterscotch, fudge and creamy toffee.
Nutty notes are in abundance alongside the smooth sweetness of spice and vanilla.
Enjoy the richness and intensity of toasted wood and vanilla.
Gingersnap biscuits, honeycomb, fresh orange and melon, earthy richness of vanilla pod and hickory

COLOUR: Golden amber. When you at first open the bottle, sherry and toffee notes float up. The Ballantine’s 17yo makes long thick oily fingers in the glass. NOSE: After the initial sherry sweetness, the nose brings notes of tropical fruit, pineapple and banana. There are hints of oak and cereal at the back. The nose is complex, luxurious and creamy. PALATE: The Ballantine’s 17yo is incredibly smooth. The palate brings notes of creamy oak and spice. There are hints of vanilla sweetness balanced with little bits of smoke. It is a complex whisky that reminds us of liquid gold. Drinking this Ballantine’s 17yo is an amazing experience. FINISH: Long and lingering with fruit and hints of sweetness, oak and spice at the end. This blended whisky is impressive. |
