A Speyside Distillery The Nose Art, Bourbon Hogshead Cask, Cask #1794, 1993, Whisky-Doris, 50.3%

A Maltiply member's tasting notes and whisky impression.

86 / 100

Fruit seems to lead here, with passion fruit, ripe yellow fruit, banana and mirabelle, while delicate honey and vanilla keep a softer edge in view. That sweetness has a useful counterweight: the palate develops spice, pepper and chilli with water, so it doesn’t read as a one-note sweet pour. The finish is described as warming and lingering, though somewhat shorter with water. I like that contrast; delicate fruitiness with a little lift feels more engaging than sweetness left to coast.
