Serge Valentin (79)

Wemyss have already issued several 1991 Scotias, and I liked them. Colour: dark straw. Nose: a fresh and fruity one, with apples and gooseberries on grass and a little clay. There’s also Glen Scotia’s typical rubbery notes, as well as oranges and just touches of lavender. Mouth: clay and chalk again, always this little rubber that’s absolutely not a flaw in this context, some beer, some pepper, orange and pineapple zests, then a little ginger and nutmeg. Tends to become much grassier over time, so maybe a little unsexy. Finish: quite long, on pepper, grass and zests. A little bitter. Comments: very good, but not too sure this was the best cask within the lot, it’s a little austere and a tad too grassy for me.

Gal Granov:

Nose: Fruity, with apples, some red fruit and some flower petals, but also darker and deeper with some spices (cinnamon, pepper, and cardamom) as well as a certain Rum like feel.

Palate: Wood spices galore, with a fruity tang, dry and spiced, then getting woodier with a hint of smoke,ginger and maybe a hint of cigar leaves.

Finish: Pepper, spicy with quite some wood and tobacco.

This is a very interesting Glen Scotia, but it’s not in the same league as the former Glen Scotia offering form Wemyss. I guess the sherry influence in the former did the magic where here it’s not as strong, and the wood notes i loved there are missing. Having said that, this is still a yummy whisky, and very enjoyable at that.
