Comments: I would say we're rather too far from 'malt whisky' here, this heavy concoction isn't exactly the best thing that ever came out of Scotland (of course not, that would rather be the bassline in the Average White Band's 'Stop The Rain'.

With water: sour wines, bottled orange juice… Mouth (neat): chocolate, some mineral meatiness, pepper, sour and bitter oranges, ginger, many heavy spices… Well this one isn't exactly playing with kid gloves, is it. Any new functionalities, tools and features shall be part of and governed by the Terms from the moment they are launched and/or available. Finish: how would I describe this… Perhaps a blend of walnut stain with some kind of nutmeg infusion and pine resin? This is old-school for sure, with heavy mentholy oak and some embrocations, but it would always keep some kind of freshness, despite these heavy pine-y oils.Mouth (neat): upper-excellent, really tense, rather more acidic (the west again), tart and fruity, reminding us all that first and foremost, cognac is wine, distilled and aged. Crisp and clean, totally well-chiselled, with lemons, only a little vanilla, iodine, a grassier peat on the palate, some mint drops, Ricola, touch of celeriac, fennel, gentian… Finish: long, still clean, with a good little fatness (sunflower oil) and a little walnut oi too. The official story is that for one week every year, the Distillery are burning peat (during, or just after malting, I suppose) and consequently make some peaty malt whisky. An easygoing sipper from Deanston, this single malt was matured in a combination of first and second-fill ex-bourbon barrels. Nose: this, is modern cognac, with much more tension, fruits, herbs… Peaches of course, blood oranges, tiny herbs, chamomile, honeysuckle, verbena, genepy… There's this freshness that's rather to be found in the west of the cognac region, including the islands.

Deanston, Balvenie Whiskyfun February 2021 - part 1 - Deanston, Balvenie

Sure I would have done 46, and this feels a tad stingy, but all the rest is rather perfect, with miso, vetegable bouillon, the obligatory umami (remember, osmazôme it is), puréed chestnuts, muscovado sugar, allspice, a little butterscotch, acid coffee Luwak-style, cracked pepper… Finish: curiously long, leafy and bitter in a good way. With water: nice earthy touches, apple peelings, muscovado sugar, beets… Mouth (neat): good sweet malt, sweet beer gueuze-style, sweeter apples (golden delicious), a few drops of agave syrup… The fact that they have millions of such casks sleeping in Scotland doesn't make it any less good, it is good. Comments: rather Al-Behr-Feldi on the nose if you ask me, while I'm finding the palate much more ordinary. Nose: all on sauna oils, menthol, pine resin, bitter chocolate, and the blackest 'black' raisins, Corinth style.

g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets. possibly as subtle and delicate as, as, come on, drop Botticelli, say Giovanni Strazza's famous Veiled Virgin!

Comments: a very interesting set-up where the wine cask may have added 'more of the whisky' instead of complementing it, if you see what I mean.
