Brave New Spirits Whisky of Voodoo ‘Mask of Death’ Speyside Single Malt 10 year old 51%
Tasting Note
Tasted: Jun 2022
A very herbal nose, reminiscent of a New World Sauvignon Blanc – cat pee, gooseberry, apricot, sweet barley, honey and hints of grist and vanilla. Tight tannins and almond appear along with a good dollop of citrus, fern and nettle. Lovely vibrancy with a touch of rich malt beneath.
The palate opens with the milky/ creamy oak, toffee and barley. Again quite citric and slightly malty with spice notes coming through on the middle. It fills out well as the malt comes through with some lovely sweet barley and citrus to balance. Good length with lingering lime, wood smoke, barley, lemon, ginger and almond.
