Inderdaad!
Het kan soms toch snel gaan hier hé.
Als je "professionele" tasting notes wil lezen, hij is al eens geproefd door Serge Valentin:
Royal Lochnagar 'Triple Matured Edition' (48%, OB, Friends of the Classic Malts, 2013)
Royal Lochnagar 'Triple Matured Edition' (48%, OB, Friends of the Classic Malts, 2013) Three stars and a half This baby was 'treated' in the same way as the Talisker for friends that we tried last week. Colour: dark gold. Nose: this one's a smokier version for sure, but I couldn't tell you if this smoke comes from the spirit. Touches of coal smoke, actually, then more candy sugar and gingerbread, as well as some apple crumble and touches of earth, leather and almonds. I humbly think that the triple-cask thing worked better on this Lochnagar than on the Talisker, even on the nose. Lochnagar's probably more docile than Talisker. Mouth: indeed. The gingery/oaky side that I already found in the Tasliker is well here but it doesn't fight the spirit, and the general feeling is rather that of some kind of spiced walnut cake. Candy sugar. Now it tends to become very peppery, you can even feel that on your lips, which is unusual. Chillies? Finish: long and spectacularly spicy. Ginger and pepper on marshmallows. Comments: the oak feels a lot but I think that kind of works. Definitely very modern and fully oak-driven. SGP:462 - 83 points.
Ik wil de pret niet bederven maar boven de 90 punten lijkt me dus wel veel te optimistisch.
