WU DRAM CLAN CAMERONBRIDGE 1974
46 YEARS OLD
40.2% ABV – 700ml
REVIEWS
WHISKY NOTES – 91/100
Nose: different, perhaps slightly fruitier and closer to an old Speysider, on tangerines and pineapples. Hints of maracuya and honey. Mint. Wood? Merely. Less rummy notes and less of the (great) varnish that we found in the Invergordon. Slightly less complex maybe, but excellent.
Mouth: now closer to an old Irish whiskey perhaps, opening up on pink grapefruit, mango and passion fruits. Lime. Pineapple. Light peppery notes too..
Finish: medium long, with the tropical notes keeping strong, alongside vanilla and light oak spice.
What do you prefer, Irish fruitiness or rummy fruitiness? I love the tropical fruits here, especially the bright passion fruits on the palate. It feels thinner than the Invergordon, but also less ‘grainy’ and the value for money is superior.
