Bot. in Feb. 1991 Bot#.6/180 for Mini Bottle Cleb(U.K.)
Color:淡黃,light amber
20 Nose:初聞有麥芽,vanilla,混合著一點刺鼻的胡椒味.接著有ginger,lemon peer,饅頭味.加一點水之後,出現麥芽的香甜,香氣持久,但後段無持續變化
20 Palate:口感強勁,light body, very dry,口中則是明顯ginger,pepper,加水之後則有lemon peer的味道
20 Finish:尾韻長,香氣甜美持久,唯酒體及香氣複雜度不足,較為可惜
19 Balance:酒體平衡度稍差,可能酒體較輕之故,後段香氣表現較為單調,失去剛開始的均衡感
ARDMORE 1990/2005 55.8% CS Gordon & MacPhail
Cask#12285,12287 Refill Bourbon
Color:淺黃,watering
23 Nose:初聞有些許vanilla和白色水果的香氣,青蘋果皮,lemon peer,kiwi以及丁香.接著出現明顯的peat!香氣相當迷人,複雜而有層次感
22 Palate:口感非常強勁,酒體稍輕,dry,但口中vanilla和peat味道明顯,接著出現,pepper,ginger,帶著一點鹹味,後段口中煙燻味越來越重,餘韻帶一絲苦味
20 Finish:尾韻綿長,香氣長且豐富甜美,讓人很想再多倒一杯,唯口感變化稍嫌不足,後勁顯得不若香氣般美好
20 Balance:香氣均衡,尤其加了一點水之後,白色水果的香氣和peat味道均衡的表現出來,酒體平衡度尚可,香氣的享受更甚於口感
