Triple Wood continues the distillery's history as in the past. A judicious combination of European and American Sherry oak and Bourbon casks gives this whisky light, subtle notes that enhance the smooth, fruity style of this 'new make' spirit. A new starting point for all their single malts.
Nose: Leather, plums, currants and barley malt followed by burnt oak and notes of cinnamon, green apple and black pepper. Smoke, discreet at first, is lifted by aromas of red fruits, creamy briar porridge and a touch of pipe tobacco.
Mouth: European oak is clearly perceptible. Dry and spicy, it offers notes of burnt oak and roasted coffee beans. A sweetness close to candied and dried fruit cake, a hint of black pepper. With a little water, the smoke and fruity cask sweetness intensify, bringing out notes of Apples and pears.
Finish: Smoky malt, glowing charcoal, sea salt and earthy smoke.
Nez : Le Miltonduff 15 ans Ballantine's offre des arômes de fruits mûrs, de miel et de vanille, avec une légère touche épicée. Bouche : En bouche, ce single malt dévoile des saveurs de fruits secs, de caramel et de chêne, le tout parfaitement équilibré avec une subtile note florale. Finish : La finale est longue et douce, laissant place à des notes de cannelle et de miel qui persistent agréablement en bouche.
Nose: Smooth and soft. Orange cream cake, a hint of vanilla, light slivered almond note and a slight green note. A drop of water enhances the waxy note.
Mouth: Creamy, sweet, note of Seville orange peel before drying out, a little peppery spiciness. A drop of water softens the taste and reduces acidity, but does not alter the overall profile.
