Generally the Danish importer has been very good at getting bottlings exclusively for Denmark, but notes on previous ones have escaped me and others I have not tasted, but lets have a look at 2 very recent ones.
First up, a whisky from the mothballed Imperial distillery in Speyside...
Imperial 1995 16yo 58% 09.10.1995/14.05.2012, hogshead#50317, 216 bottles, Signatory Exclusively for Denmark
Gold colouredNose:
Nutty, creamy, light coat of (refill) sherry, very honeyed with hints of citrus and wet leaves.
Taste:
Loads of things going on! Spice hit, mouthfilling, spicy alchohol marinated fruits, somthing like a mild sherry infusion and caramel. Waxy...
Adding a couple of drops of water makes it very citric after a while. Finishes on whisky flavoured bbq oak flakes.
Reminded me of a Clynelish several times during the tasting. Lovely!
87/100!
