Queen Anne Scotch Tasting Notes

Nose

Despite the fact that this Queen Anne was bottled at least 30 years ago, it's unmistakably a young spirit. Lots of Grain, a bit of Malt, Dried Apricots, Nut-Casks, Brown Sugar, Buttered Toast, Citrus Peel and Oak. Some Fruit like Pear and Peach and hints of Honey, Straw and light Peat. Nothing to write home about but not bad either.

Finish

Middle-Long and Bitter-Sweet with Brown Sugar, Honey, Oak, Licorice and Pepper.

Color

Deep Gold/Copper

Palate

Bitter-Sweet with Grain (Alcohol), Brown Sugar, Honey, Pepper, Licorice, Aniseed, Green Wood, Vanilla and light Peat
