Serge Valentin (88)

I liked the ‘WIP 2’ really a lot (WF 88). This new one from Glengyle Distillery by Springbank is around 7 years old (picture is WIP 2). Colour: straw. Nose: a big, fatty, oily, waxy nose at first nosing, then old style sourness (cider apples, porridge), ink, linseed oil, coal, leaven, pils beer… I don’t have WIP 2 at hand but they’re probably very similar, which is good news, obviously. A very peculiar style – or more than that, a statement. After 15 minutes: more walnut skins and ink, and much less porridgy/yeasty notes. Mouth: so obviously Springbanky! Lemon, oil, minerals, wax, grass, earth, roots… It seems to me that these casks were less active than WIP 2’s, I seem to get less vanilla but then again, it’s been months. Anyway, we won’t complain, as vanilla is whisky’s ketchup (back up, Serge!) Finish: long and briny, with some lime juice and a little barley sugar. A tad fizzy at this point. Comments: I wrote it before, they’re the only ones who make this style these days, unless I’ve missed some. My cup of malt.
