Two younger
high-flying Mannochmore
One other barely obscure Distillery (no references to Loch Dhu right here, I promise) that we wish to style each occasionally, even when it is not a fairly one. Thoughts you, it was inbuilt 1971, whereas Edward Heath was the PM, and has then been working somewhat intermittently for a few years. (The Telegraph)

Mannochmore 11 yo 2010/2021 (55.7%, Fable Whisky, Chapter 5, Hound, hogshead, cask #4880, 308 bottles) 
No additional feedback about these authentic labels that we like a lot. Color: white wine. Nostril: hyper chalky and lemony, completely uncooked, with some lower grass then. As we frequently write – perhaps too typically – it is received the purity that is to be present in Sancerre’s purest sauvignons blancs. As we additionally generally write, it will lower you into halves (sufficient, S.) With water: uncooked wool, new sweater, plaster, fern, porridge…. Mouth (neat): somewhat sizzling and spirity at this level, however there’s nearly no want so as to add any water to seek out out about what is going on to occur as soon as water’s been added (gee…) With water: fairly good, stuffed with lemon liqueur, with inexperienced tea, extra chalk, sourdough bread and inexperienced orange. As soon as once more, fantastic purity. End: somewhat lengthy, on just about the identical notes. This hogshead was a quiet star. Feedback: there was a 12 yo 2008 by Fable Whisky that was even higher in my view, however this one’s nearly good. To be cellared for positive.

Mannochmore 13 yo 2008/2022 (53.6%, The Whisky Company, barrel, 203 bottles)
I discover it somewhat attention-grabbing that The Whisky Company would have bottled a younger Mannochmore; I’d suppose one thing’s been taking place with this barrel. Color: gentle gold. Nostril: clearly related, however this one’s additionally received waxes and oils, on high of the lemony chalkiness. Avocado flesh, wee whiffs of chilly hibiscus tea… With water: paraffin, girl’s hand cream, citron and lemon, chalk… Mouth (neat): wonderful. All-fruit cocktail (citrus first, additionally papaya and mango) with somewhat grated ginger on high of it. Not even the tiny touches of coconut turn into an issue. With water: pure fruity goodness, this one takes you straight to Kuta seashore. End: somewhat lengthy, fruity, very good, with perhaps, I stated perhaps, somewhat an excessive amount of coconut from the barrel. Nit-picking once more. Feedback: good, I might have gone to 90 with out the coconut. Dura Lex, sed Lex.
