Tasting notes
Chris Goodrum (Gauntleys)
Refill Bourbon DL7044
Dist: Feb 1996 Btl: Mar 2011
Tasted: Apr 2011
A milky/ vanilla nose with some wonderfully deep, edgy barley fruit. Some gentle smoke drifts in and the phenolic build in a tender manner. Lovely complexity with hints of brandy butter, peat and spicy liquorice.
Again the palate is quite milky and mouth coating with a depth of barley sweetness and rumbling malt, peat and alcohol which bursts into a mouth watering middle accented by citrus and menthol notes. Lovely balancing sweetness and a very long coal dust and ash finish. Excellent complexity and intensity.
