About this deal

Although this, my second bottle of AnCnoc 18, doesn’t seem to have the life-changing sparkle that my first did, or at least that I remember (let’s face it both whisky and palates change and Talisker 10 doesn’t do it for me like it used to), the character and feeling is still there and I can confirm it’s still right up my alley - a strong seven.

We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products. In the mouth: – sweet but not overly so. I get dried jujube dates, goji berries, sultanas and raisins. It is slightly tannic, as I get cloves and that numb feeling on the tongue you get from biting down on one, almost like you’re at the dentist’s. Hints of rubber. Surprisingly thin, but has an oiliness that carries the flavour round the mouth. Dry and oaky, but also creamy, with soothing honey and oats. A bitterness comes through with cassia bark, powdered ginger and burnt toffee sauce. The finish – medium to long, drying on the mouth with a citrus tang and warming to the throat. The tannins also gives the sides of the tongue a slight numbness. The flavour almost disappears but lingers. Conclusions

Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates. A lovely effervescence is the first thing I notice. That fizzy sensation from the nose translating nicely on the tongue. It’s got depth, coming from oak and dried fruit such as prunes and sultanas and dried apricot, sitting on liquorice and notes of roasted grain. It then goes into a lingering finish of soft oaky bitterness turning increasingly dry with echoes of fruit and chocolate.

Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). I am not an influencer, or at least try not to be, but I can totally see why people could be influenced by what I have said. It is very easy to follow the crowd; we are sheeples, after all. Same with myself: I will go to tastings or sit with whisky friends where it is easy to be led to think a certain way. To combat this, I tend to ignore everyone until all of my notes are written down. I can be pretty unsociable at these events! This cookie is set by Rubicon Project to control synchronization of user identification and exchange of user data between various ad services. Jason made some comments to that effect in a recent live chat; he isn’t a fan of blind tastings, due to the expectation of being able to identify drams. I don’t really get that; maybe it’s a competitive “guy” thing… or maybe he’s just worried that he’ll say something nice about a Jura on record! However, the main point is, if you haven’t been to a blind tasting before, find one, or have one with friends. Each brings a bottle and pour without letting one another know what it is. It is so much fun! Of course, it might not be your cup of tea, but at least you’ve experienced it. For example, one day I will go out and try Fujikai 10-year-old, and see if it really is that bad! It is all about trying new things. We may, but are not under any obligation, to release new functionalities and tools or other features for the Service every now and then.

Today, however, I want to influence you in a non-influencer way! Blind tastings, I influence you to do more blind tastings! Admittedly, I have only been to a few, but they are probably the best events I have attended. To taste samples and not be swayed by the bottle, and to be able to hear true feelings and opinions of the attendees and see the reactions when the bottles are finally revealed—that is good stuff, my friend! Understandably, there may be pressure for people to guess what is what; but for me, it’s all good fun, with what I hope are delicious whiskies!
