развернуть подробно
В текстовых отзывах (13 шт.) повторяются несколько тем. Во-первых, молодость: «Smells young, but interesting», «Still young, but with a lot of potential!», «relatively young», «not much soul yet. I am sure it will get there». Во-вторых, сладость и фруктовость: «all kinds of sweet influences», «Sweetness now, honey, a bit of oranges», «sweet cream», «vanilla, sweet apples, pear, sugar», «Very fruity… apples, pears and plums… bananas, pineapples, oranges and coconuts», «oranges in caramel», «Rich dark fruits… Christmas cake, chocolate», «semi-sweet, fermented grapes, dried apricots, black cherries, plums, dark chocolate». В-третьих, влияние винных/шерри-бочек и «constructed» характер: «The wine influence adds a nice touch», «a few candied grapes from Sherry and wine barrels», «Subtle hint of sweetness from sherry cask and nice warming rum influence», «With so many different cask types used, there is something for everyone although it is hard to pick out the DNA of the distillery», «feels very constructed». Также упоминаются пряность/перец: «pepper, but not as heavy as the nose», «white pepper and ginger… nutmeg», «white pepper», «delicate accent of peppery spices»; и крепость/резкость носа: «Powerful nose, quite some alcohol noticeable, punching», «sharp, irritating nose, slightly alcoholic», «strong aroma, irritating the nose», при этом «does not need water despite the high alcohol percentage», хотя один из отзывов советует «some drops of water».

Отдельные негативные/нейтральные замечания: «can't enjoy this dram as I could nose Vegemite»; «very expensive with its price tag of around 95 EUR»; «A decent whisky, but not much soul yet». Общего «экспертного консенсуса» тексты не заявляют — это набор индивидуальных оценок (от 81 до 88), и формулировки вроде «something for everyone» ещё один отзыв отражают лишь мнение одного рецензента.

A rather tasty dram, that has all kinds of sweet influences, and feels very constructed. A decent whisky, but not much soul yet. I am sure it will get there. The wine influence adds a nice touch, almost to enhance the new make spirit feel of it, which is represented by tangerines. I was pleasantly surprised by this one.

This whisky really needs some drops of water, it just cuts off the hefty edge, adding more sweetness and drinkability. Pleasant and interesting dram.

Powerful nose, quite some alcohol noticeable, punching. Fruity, berries, grassy, vegetal touch. A whiff of rhubarb.

Powerful, pickering, pepper, but not as heavy as the nose. Sweetness now, honey, a bit of oranges. Adding a few drops of water make the sharp edge disappear, and adds some more sweetness.

Powerful, warming in the belly. Fruity and sweet, honey and oranges, pepper. Medium long finish. Some drops of water decrease the intense power.

After the stimulation of alcohol comes some condenser flavor, copper pipe and sulfur, sweet cream, grass. Creamy, lightly fruity, with a few candied grapes from Sherry and wine barrels, cinnamon cake, dirty (sulphur and wormtub, although according to sources Lindores does not use worm tube), strong and direct, spicy. Medium finish, sweet cream, spice, spicy and bitter. Strong direct CS whisky, relatively young, worm tube condenser feeling, very sweet, good.

Very fruity in the beginning. Think of orchard fruits such as apples, pears and plums. More fruits follow such as bananas, pineapples, oranges and coconuts with a touch of nectarines. It turns a bit sweet now with a hint of honey. Next a note of grass and immediately after quiet floral with hints of violets and daisies. At the end a little hint of oak and a clear note of young cheese.

Again the orchard fruits to start with. Apples and pears. Also a fruity note of pineapples. But that's it about the fruits. Sweet notes are trying to pull through. Honey, dark chocolate and syrup. Complemented by a clear note that makes me think of cognac. It turns a bit pinchy now with notes of white pepper and ginger. Some nutmeg right after. Some raw and dark notes such as old leather, soil and a little hint of tabacco. At the end notes of oak and licorice. Really complex this one!

Medium-long. With notes of barley, sawdust, honey and maple syrup lingering on.

With so many different cask types used, there is something for everyone although it is hard to pick out the DNA of the distillery. A good dram for a cold winter's night.

Raisins soaked in red wine, dark coloured fruit, a touch of spice perhaps, Chorley cake.

The mouthfeel is pleasant as there is a bit of chew to it - the taste is more wine soaked raisins with a slight burn from the alcohol - quite a warming dram that expands in the mouth. A hint of tannin.

There is a bite at the death - something a little sharp and spiky, otherwise a pleasnt, medium finish.

Rich dark fruits, oily texture, Christmas cake , chocolate, nutty, herbs and spices. Subtle hint of sweetness from shrry cask and nice warming rum influence. A great dram for winter.

Monk It was inevitable that Lindores would release a whisky under the label of Friar John Cor, of course – the monk of Lindores Abbey who is said to have distilled the first whisky (or whatever it was then) in 1494. It was this Cask Strength Congregation Chapter I – at a wholesome 60.2% – of which the vatting was composed with young single malt from the three classic cask types at Lindores (bourbon, sherry, STR wine barrels) and Monbazillac. The latter is a sweet French wine from Bergerac (southern France) made from the Semillon grape. Fresh apple pie, pancake dough and citrus peels: that's the nose of this Friar John Cor in a nutshell. There is also a touch of wet grass, bay leaves and mint. Smells young, but interesting. Citrus comes first, immediately followed by a good dose of vanilla pudding, white pepper and even some crème brûlée. Almost creamy – that must be thanks to the wine casks. Midpalate I get some digestive cookies and again bay leaves. Slightly sharp but does not need water despite the high alcohol percentage. The finish is relatively long, peppery and a tad bitter. The spiciness tingles on the tongue until the very last moment. A nice twist on the classic Lindores releases, without really being a highflyer. But very expensive with its price tag of around 95 EUR.

No, the bottles have already arrived in Switzerland! So everything is fine :-) Still young, but with a lot of potential!

Quite pleasant whisky with a strong aroma, irritating the nose, but also with a lot of fruit and chocolate. The finish is not too quickly fading, but the whisky is nice in taste with a delicate accent of peppery spices.
