Whiskyfun Review by Serge Valentin
Ardmore 23 yo 1997/2021 (55.1%, The Single Malts of Scotland, hogshead, cask #901281, 238 bottles) Five stars. Colour: pale straw. Nose: the glory of time again. Marzipan, white asparagus, custard, popcorn, paraffin, barley sirup and cough sirup. With honey, eucalyptus and menthol inside. With water: same plus beeswax, maple syrup and peanut butter. A little pinot gris too. Mouth (neat): tops. Banana cream, spicy mango chutney, white clover honey, Szechuan pepper… You would almost believe a chef made this one in his/her lab. With water: it loves water. Grapefruit liqueur, IPA and more pink peppers. I, for one, cannot resist this. Finish: only medium, but monstrously fruity. Peppery aftertaste. Comments: some kind of witchcraft, most certainly. Oh and spells. SGP:652 - 90 points.
