A Good Solid Batch
This is the second A’bunadh I have tried and I like it a little bit better than the first (from batch 53)
This whisky comes in Hot, at 60.3% I really like cask strength whiskies, but this one did need a couple capfuls of water.
On the nose, you get a lot of what you would expect: black cherries, black currant, dried fruit and raisins. Also a big caramel note. Buttery, toffee goodness, like a good speysider should.
In the Mouth, more of the same: lots of dried fruit, currants and raisins, but I felt the toffee notes took over here. There was also a touch of molasses and chocolate.
The Finish was sweet, bitter, and long-lasting, with a touch of spiciness and cinnamon. This whisky coats all of the top of your tongue with peppery spice and tingles.
Overall, I highly recommend the A’bunadh. Sherry-cask monsters like these have a wonderful nose that you can enjoy for a long time before even taking a mouthful. On the tongue, they are Hot – these cask strengths aren’t playing around – but they are also incredibly rich with a nice creamy mouthful.
“Rich” is a good word to describe the whole experience. I would give this whisky an 89

此酒酒香浓郁醇厚，品尝的时候香气甘甜回味悠长，而且可以根据自己喜好来调它的口感，喜欢浓烈口感的可以直接饮用，如果喜欢细致口感的，加冰或冰镇脉动都是不错的选择，这只是我个人建议。

一款好的威士忌
这是我尝试过的第二款雅伯莱威士忌，比起第一款(第53批次)，我更喜欢这一款。
我个人非常喜欢桶装威士忌，这款桶装威士忌味道很辣，60.3%的酒精度，所以确实需要加水饮用。
闻味道你会闻到很多你想要的东西:黑樱桃、黑醋栗、干果和葡萄干还有焦糖的味道，巴特太妃糖的香甜，这就是一款好的威士忌该有的样子。
品尝到的更多的是:很多干果如葡萄干，但我觉得太妃糖的味道在这里占了上风，还有一点糖蜜和巧克力。
余味甜、苦、持久，带有一丝辛辣和肉桂的味道。这种威士忌在你的舌尖涂上辛辣的香料和刺痛感，让余味久久绵延不绝。
总的来说，我强烈推荐雅伯莱，这款雪莉酒堪称怪物级别的威士忌，在饮用之前你可以闻到很多奇妙绝伦的味道，味道绵延不绝，可以在饮用之前尽情享受。品尝时，入口有酒精的热感——我觉得这些木桶的优势并没有充分发挥出来——但它们也富含令人难以置信的美味奶油。
“丰富”是描述这款酒整体感觉的最贴切的词，我会给雅伯莱原酒60批次单一麦芽威士忌打89分。
“丰富”是描述整个经历的好词。我会给这威士忌打89分
