A very special Mannochmore sourced from a single small experimental batch exposed to a highly unusual maturation. First housed in refill casks, then in unusual, highly active virgin European Oak for almost three decades has revealed a whole new character. The pale and youthful whisky has evolved into a dark and intriguing spirit, lean and smooth in texture. Selected by Dr Craig Wilson, Mannochmore 1990 is one of eight carefully curated whiskies in the third instalment of the Prima & Ultima series. The powerful taste of striking dark orange marmalade is cut with drying wood spice before spiralling into endless layers of deep bitterness.
TASTING NOTES
Appearance: Rich rosewood with ruby lights.
Body: Medium.
Nose: A gentle and almost enigmatic nose, dry overall, which initially gives little away. After a while a suggestion of polished leather emerges, perhaps edging towards scented wax furniture polish, on a base of hard toffee, with vanilla notes.
Palate: Lean and smooth in texture, while the powerfully bittersweet taste is immediately striking. The powerful taste of striking dark orange marmalade is cut with drying wood spice before spiralling into endless layers of deep bitterness.
Finish: Medium to long, lightly spicy and very drying, with a bitter-sweet nutty-spicy aftertaste.
