With a large proportion of malts aged in sherry casks, the Taketsuru 17 year old presents the seasoned whisky drinker with sophisticated, mature aromas of dried fruits, leather and tobacco spice.
With its stunning complexity and character, this bottling was voted world’s best blended malt whisky three times.
Colour: |
burnished gold with a copper hue |
Nose: |
spicy and delicate, it also reveals fruity (yellow plum, peach) and chocolate notes. It develops into old leather, dried tobacco leaf, and dried fruit (apricot, fig). |
Taste: |
rich and generous, it is reminiscent of candied fruit (orange) and morello cherry, and is highly unctuous. Creamy, it develops into toffee, mocha, and hazelnut. |
Finish: |
long with praline notes, charred wood and cigar-smoke, worthy of an old Speyside whisky. Aniseed and citrus provide this whisky with freshness and elegance. Dried herb notes are also present. |
