Omschrijving:
Viermaal gedistilleerde spirit!
(Whiskyfun.com; hier geproefd op 86%!):Bruichladdich X4 (86%, Cask Strength, distilled 2006) This one has been four times distilled, and it’s still new make of course. Well, six weeks old, actually. Aaargh! Aaargh, really? Let’s see… Nose: very strong of course but not ‘over-explosive’ at all. Lots of berries, mostly wild raspberries (eau-de-vie). Not burning at all, most surprisingly, a beautiful nose, very pure. Whiffs of white chocolate and praline. Mouth (neat!): extremely pure, soft and smooth. And, I must say, delicious. Warming of course but not hot, very smooth, really, tasting just like a wild raspberry eau-de-vie. I don’t know how it’ll mature but it’s really great just as it is. Maybe they should put it into demi-johns for a few years (hint, hint) and forget about calling it whisky. Now, as Jim McEwan says, ‘the barrel is a greater invention than the wheel because you can’t mature whisky in a wheel!, but I’m sure glass maturing would be a hit. By the way, with a few drops of water (reduced to roughly 60%): it gets rather more violent, curiously, and is more on pears than on raspberries. Anyway, it’s a gobsmacking experiment indeed.
