Glendronach Revival 15
Haven’t had this in a while. The Revival is known to fall victim to sulfur taint sometimes, which is what happened to my last bottle. It’s a shame, actually. I really liked it when it was popped, but a rubber flavour set in after a month and seemed to get worse with time. The whisky that I loved at first became undrinkable; I believe I killed the bottle in mixed drinks. But obviously that’s not every bottle. Time to come back to it.

Nose: Layered, with very big sherry. Raisins, figs, oranges, cinnamon, chocolate, plums, roasted pecans, leather. Serious depth here.

Palate: Creamy texture and a medium body. There’s cream, raisins, figs, dates, chocolate, cinnamon, plum, apple vinegar, and red apple skin.

Finish: Quite long and richly layered. Cream, vanilla, sherry, raisins, leather, roasted nuts, charcoal, red apple skin, fruit tobacco.

Thoughts: Not hard to see why this is so popular. GlenDronach doesn’t do superficial sherry; they go for the deep, rich, layered stuff. The richness here works nicely with its medium body and creamy profile. That being said, I prefer the likes of the Cask Strength and the Octarine, but I can see why this one is basically the ‘flagship’ for the brand. A straight-forward quality sherry with good bang-for-buck, you can’t go wrong. Well… unless it’s sulfur tainted.

嗅覺:
*聞起來很多層次,雪莉味很重.
*葡萄乾,椰棗,柳橙,肉桂,巧克力,甜棗,烤過的堅果,皮革.
味覺:
*口感像是鮮奶油一樣的滑順,酒體適中.
*雪莉,鮮奶油,葡萄乾,椰棗,巧克力,肉桂,甜棗,蘋果醋,紅蘋果皮.
後味:
*後味久且味道濃郁.
*牛奶,香草,雪莉,葡萄乾,皮革,烤過的堅果,黑炭,紅蘋果皮,水果菸草.

 評語:
*很明顯的看的出來味什麼這一款那麼受歡迎,格蘭多納不做廉價的雪莉味,他們只做品質高的雪莉.
濃郁的味道和像牛奶般的口感很協調的搭配,以價格來說是很划算,非常非常雪莉味的威士忌,
好喝!

Can you describing the rubberizing process? What are the flavors like? Really sour? I think my 12 went that way.

Sulfur taint can go any number of ways. It's usually along the lines of burnt match heads or a rubber flavour. My last Revival was very much on the rubber side. Think plastic and rubber bands. Very unpleasant stuff.

香氣深沉迷人.有股老酒味.剛開瓶巧可利味道重.不會過於甜膩
酒杯喝玩不洗隔天有股黑糖味.蠻特別
