Michel Couvreur 'Clearach' Whisky 700ml

Colour: gold. No new make, obviously, but virtual whisky that's younger than 3 years. 

Nose: vanilla and praline plus fudge and cafe latte. Whiffs of yellow wild flowers and a little smoke. More mature than many 10yo malts on the nose. 

Mouth: very sweet and very malty. A certain harshness, typical of very young whiskies. Vanilla and quite some oak (ginger and nutmeg). A very active cask it seems. 

Finish: medium long, getting even spicier (white pepper). Comments: well, I don't know what this would have become over time, it's already rather woody, albeit pleasantly so. 73 points - Serge Valentin, whiskyfun.com.
