McLelland's Speyside Single Malt
McClelland’s isn’t a distillery, they’re a bottler. They have a series of releases designed to embody the characters of Scotland’s different whisky producing regions. In doing so, they’ve chosen some very typical profiles to act as ambassadors for the regions. Want to know what an Islay, Highland, Lowland, or Speyside whisky tastes like? Here’s a tame introduction. This is my take on the Speyside release.

Nose: Very light and gentle. Malt, honey, cereal, melon, green apple, and sweet citrus. Not complex, but quite pleasant overall.

Palate: Smooth and slightly watery. Gentle fruit, oak, vinegar, raisins, apples, honey, and baking spices. The notes are somewhat convoluted.

Finish: Short finish. Gentle peat, baking spices, faint mint, honey, cereal, barley, and sultanas.

Thoughts: Honestly, it’s kind of boring. What’s lacking here is character, richness, and intensity. It’s a decidedly Speyside release, but it’s too generic. There’s nothing particularly bad here other than the fact that it’s, well, so average.

BUT… this ought to be understood in the context in which it is marketed. In that sense, it is what it should be. A pleasant beginner’s dram for someone who wants to get a feel for Speyside whiskies. It’s a superficial offering, but it serves a purpose. If you want to learn about Speyside, you can dip a toe in and test the waters. Snooty anoraks like us might forget this one rather quickly, though.

嗅覺:
*層次趕不多,簡單淳樸,輕雅淡香.
*玉米片,香瓜,綠蘋果,甜柑橘,大麥.
味覺:
*酒體中等,口感滑順,有點水的口感.
*橡木,蘋果醋,葡萄乾,水梨,烘培香料.
後味:
*後味短,味道不是很明顯,清楚.
*烘培香料,薄荷,淡淡泥煤,蜂蜜,玉米片,大麥,葡萄乾,蘋果.

評語:
*邁凱倫其實不一個釀酒廠,他們有四種版本的威士忌,HIGHLAND,LOWLAND,SPEYSIDE,ISLAY.
這是SPEYSIDE無年份單一麥芽,他們選的酒廠都是味道最中等,標準的(STANDARD).
對於瘋狂喜愛威士忌的人會覺得這瓶酒並不是很有趣或是特別,

但是這很適合剛入門的威士忌愛好者,如果他們想要知道SPEYSIDE的基本味道,不妨可試試這個.但如果你想要來點有挑戰性的,這不會是你的首選.
