SMWS 76.57 'Sweet & tangy'

Age: 8 yo

Vintage: 1999

Strength: 60.2%

Bottler: Scotch Malt Whisky Society

Tasting Notes:

Nose: I think I must have just cut the lawn. And then come in for some Lemon Meringue pie
Mrs C57 says raspberries, coconut and hair conditioner


P: Oh yumm. This is lovely - sweet and lemony.
With a little water it loses some of the grassiness and becomes more lemony.
Now there's a hint of bubblegum in it too.


F: A trace of bitterness that fits rather nicely with the citrus. Quite long.

SMWS 76.31 'Marzipan and boiled sweets'

Age: 13 yo

Vintage: 1989

Strength: 60.3%

Bottler: Scotch Malt Whisky Society

Tasting Notes:

N: Fruit toffee and honeycomb. A trace of smoke (more so with a drop of water, I find)

P: Powerful this one. But very tasty with that fruit toffee again. Quite "hot" in the mouth

[Edit 01.09.2010] I'm now getting an acrid sulphur-like note tat has reduced the pleasure of this dram to almost nil - yuk!]

F: A little bitter, like burnt toffee. Long

SMWS 76.37 'Burnt orange'

Age: 13 yo

Vintage: 1990

Strength: 57.8%

Bottler: Scotch Malt Whisky Society

Tasting Notes:

N: I can see why the Society called it Burnt Orange, but there's more sherry (raisins) than anything else, to my nose. Nicely spicy too!

P: A bit of burnt rubber hits me first. Then it smooths out into sherry, with those oranges from the nose.
Rich and mouth-coating.


F: The sherry is still strong and the orange has gone. Medium length
