Whisky review : Clan Campbell The Noble Scotch Whisky bottled at 43%

Whisky review : Clan Campbell The Noble Scotch Whisky bottled at 43% (Vintage Miniature bottle
from the mid-80's).





-Very popular brand in France

Colour: light gold colour, very light, or to say dark straw.

Nose: Very soft nose, very fresh, sweet, apples, fresh apples, sweet, not too oily. It looks pretty clean. The quiet but fresh nose indicates that its been settling down for quite a while in its bottle. It's reminding me of a Glenfiddich 12.

Mouth: sweet, wood notes, raw sugar, followed by a medium heat burning chilli sensation. Odd flavour as it becomes a burn with no apparent character. It still is a harsh young spirit, not a very well balanced ''blend''. Although not written on the bottle, I'd have to assume it's a blend (It's not write ''single malt''neither).

Finish: leaves a bitter-sweet, woody feeling, with some kind of bitter melon sensation. It's the kind of whisky that I would gently pass on. I would rather welcome a Chivas or a Glen Grant.

E for the price. As a collectible, the market price for it is around 25$.
C- for presentation. Very sloppy label.
C- for taste. Harsh...bitter. Not something I would suggest
