Auchroisk (Ah-thrusk) is another expression from the Flora and Fauna range since 2001. This distillery established in 1974 as a blending powerhouse, it quickly became apparent that the liquid was too good to not sell as Single Malt.
Smooth, with a light to medium body.
Nose: A mild nose for its strength. Sweet and fresh. Ground almonds are immediately apparent, even dry marzipan. Acetone. Some dark chocolate behind (this develops towards milk chocolate). Becomes nuttier all the time. With water, opens-up: fresh and estery. Acetone, cooked pears, solvent. A light oily-fatty note behind, possibly nut oil. Nuttiness still apparent. Also, a very light char in the back.
Palate: Takes a fair amount of water. Light and fresh; pleasant mouthfeel. Sweetish start, some acidity. Surprisingly dry, fairly short – all well balanced.
