2000 Smiths Angaston 14 Year Old Single Malt Australian Whisky (700ml)

Note: Product comes from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product pictured.

One of the latest installments to this stand-out South Australian project comes from a fourteen year old single cask, topped up with small quantities of malt from the 1997 and 1998 vintages. It marks another distinctive addition to the Smith's line up.
Having developed something of a following over the years, these whiskies now sell out apace on release, so don't dally!

Tasting note: Deep copper colour, showing some minor sediment in the glass. Opens with a superb, lifted, fine brandy-like bouquet including fruit cake, dried fig and vanilla. Several minutes in the glass further emphasises the fruit cake / raisin qualities adding hints of cinnamon. Fruity-yet-dry delivery with raisin cake and dried fig flavours plus a lively dance of spices, while the finish adds a flash of vanillan oak sweetness. Excellent concentration. Concludes long, spicy and mildly tannic with the dried fruits echoing in the fade. Lovely malt.
