VIP Class Notes 15th April (Jesse) [R]

Homework

Talk about a good day you had recently, use the grammar from last class (because… etc)


Reading

One of my favourite whiskys is 12 year old Aultmore which is made in Speyside in Scotland.
Nose: Light, fresh, sweet honey from wild flowers, grassy, a hint of almond milk, delicate and fresh. A real nice nose.
Palate: Light sweet honey, sweet apples and fudge toffee, greenery and grapefruits, not as sweet as felt on the nose and just as we turn to the finish, oak wood spices. Overall it’s light and delicate balanced by the heavy sweet apple notes.
Finish: Medium length with fizzy grapefruit and sweet fruit juice, lingering green spices and white mild pepper.
Thoughts: It’s a real nice entry level whisky which showcases the distillery profile. It’s delicate and light, boasting grassy, herbal and sweet notes. No wonder blenders like it and that whisky aficionados flocked to the independent bottling….
