Glenlivet, Thirty Six (Wilson & Morgan) (en)
Here is a spectacular bottle. An old Glenlivet. This bottle has finished top, even if it is followed closely by a much younger Cragganmore. Unanimity on this venerable whisky? No, as usual. It has raised passions (the highest score is 93 points), but not for everyone, since the lowest score is 80 points. A difference of 13 points.

Color: Light Mahogany
Nose: The nose is greedy. Presence of dried fruits, cold tobacco, some rancio. Alcohol is present but fairly blends well in flavorings. Mouth: Dry fruits, spices. It's hot, it's well done. Alcohol is still present but always as well integrated. Final: Long, sweet, hot. The alcohol still there but not at all disturbing. A fairly complex Whisky. |

Perfumed nose with a presence of alcohol a little too present. Sherry it is but it's a sherry. straightforward, tough
It will take time for him to express ... Unfortunately, the alcohol takes over everything. It fails to settle down, that's a shame. Palate is pungent, dry and nervous attack. Woody. Astringent and really powerful. Even too much. A taste of cold coffee and something bitter that reminds me of that taste especially after chewing, inadvertently, a pip fruit. This final is very present, spicy and hot. Aftertaste of coffee without sugar very tight well led. This gives a bitterness that will give a significant length. Maybe some peanuts ... Comment Although too powerful. The mask any alcohol. At least I'm sure the 40% required! It's a shame. |

Voici une bouteille spectaculaire. Un vieux Glenlivet. Cette bouteille a terminé en tête, même si elle est suivie de très près par un Cragganmore beaucoup plus jeune. Unanimité sur ce vénérable whisky? Non, comme d'habitude. Il a suscité des passions (la cote la plus élevée est de 93 points), mais pas chez tout le monde, puisque la cote le plus basse est de 80 points. Un écart de 13 points.| Jolie_Grenouille |
Nez: Un nez gourmand. Présence de fruits secs, de tabac froid, un peu de rancio. L'alcool est assez présent mais se fond bien dans les arômes.
Bouche: Fruits secs, épices. C'est chaud, c'est bien fait. L'alcool est toujours aussi présent mais toujours aussi bien intégré. Final: Longue, sucrée, chaude. Toujours cet alcool bien présent mais pas du tout dérangeant. Un whisky assez complexe. |

Couleur ambre
Nez parfumé avec une présence d'alcool un peu trop présente :(. Sherry il l'est mais c'est un sherry franc, rude. Il va falloir du temps pour qu'il s'exprime.. Malheureusement, l'alcool prend le dessus sur tout. Il ne parvient pas à s'assagir, c'est bien dommage. Bouche piquante, sèche et nerveuse en attaque. Boisée. Astringente et vraiment puissante. Trop même. Un bon goût de café froid et quelque chose d'amère qui me fait penser a ce goût particulier après avoir croqué, par inadvertance, un pépin de fruit. Finale très présente, épicée et chaude. Un arrière goût de café très serré sans sucre bien amené. Cela lui confère une amertume qui lui donnera une longueur non négligeable. Peut-être quelques arachides... Commentaire Bien trop puissant. L'alcool masque tout. Au moins, je suis sûr qu'il les 40% requis ! C'est dommage. |

Undisclosed distillery: Born on Islay, house malt (en)
Another excellent surprise, that bottle who cannot be named and that costs thirtyeuros. It received 84.06 points average with 90 as highest rating, and a 78 as the lowest note. Further evidence that affordable whisky can sometimes be very good.
Here are the notes extremes:

Here are the notes extremes:
| Alouis |
Color: intense gold
Nose: Peat, on the cold ashes, and then moving rapidly toward rounder notes of sherry, chocolate and a hint of rubber. Then the cereals are entering followed by spices. Palate: The palate combination peat / rubber is perfect, just enough of both. Cereals are present, the cold ashes, a little iodine and sherry notes greedy. Finish: Long on flavor in the mouth. | |
| Arno |
Nose: beautiful nose on dry peat and a hint of bitumen. A fine blend of animal notes, quarry, leather and smoke. Ash and pepper. A dash of lemon juice? Wise, discreet, relaxed. Very nice.
Taste: smooth without any acidity, meaty and dry peat. Comes spices and pepper on the end with a little lemon juice until it becomes a bit "burned". Takes his time, but great development! Final: meaty, smoky, smoked trout. Superb finish on this topic. Conclusion: play on lands of the sample # 2, this register meaty and smoky, but more wisely, with discretion and sharpness. So, very elegant. I appreciate! |

Color: gold
Nose with a hint of smoke. Alcohol is now quickly joined by notes of citrus. The nose ends with a disagreeable impression on the freshly cut grass and artichoke. The palate is fresh on the cereal and fresh fruit. The finish is medium, and fresh fruit Comment. I am baffled by this whisky. I do not know what to think. I assigned the lowest score of all my WDTS more to mark my disappointment as to assign a specific number. |
