A one point in time, using CERTAIN terms to describe things was needed and served a purpose, and even then only by people in the industry who needed to communicate the REALITY of what a beverate tasted like. The most basic example of what I’m talking about are the terms ‘sweet’ and ‘dry’ When dealing with wine, certain simple tastes were used to further define, like cranberry for a Rhone Wine or cherry for Rioja, and just one word or two to put the idea across, there was a purpose for that, and those few words conveyed the idea. And people in the industry knew what was ment by those few and simple words.

Everyone has to agree it has a sherried flavor, but many people would agree it taste like banana, why not a fudge pop, or a bacon cheesburger, or cherried road apples. I just polished another bottle of this, for you folks who might be thinking you’d like to buy a bottle and are wondering what it really tastes like, because the review of it given here is, well – worthless, it’s just another bit of so much hot air, that tells you absolutely nothing. After reading it you still have no idea what you’re in for if you buy a bottle, and you know darn well after you taste it, what you taste will be nothing at all like what the reviewers have said. The colour is a bright pale gold. The nose is bright as well, fresh and fruity, with honey, lemon citrus and baskets of barley sugar. Some cocoa as well, and a little briny. Sweet and refreshing, perfect on a hot summers day like today. Water seems to add an almost peaty element to it!

Nose: Medium honey, barley, vanilla, grass, apples, apple cider, pastry crust, gummie peach candy, and some distant smoke. Occasionally I’ll even get a whiff of curry or mustard thrown in. Bright, pleasant, and interesting.This one looks particularly hard but this new distillery on Uig, Abhainn Dearg, is pronounced Avin – Jerrig which is Gaelic for “red river”.

In 1993 Inver House changed the bottling names to anCnoc but it wasn’t until 2003, after Inver House was bought by Pacific Spirits, that the AnCnoc 12yo became the baseline official bottling. From that point on various releases have happened and more expensive bottles with bigger age statements have been released along with special editions.
