Manochmore MANNOCHMORE 1988-2016 27yo THREE RIVERS 'DANCE' #219083 47.5% one of 245 bottles, Bourbon Hogshead The aroma has a matured character with green apple and white flowers, faint pear, white wine, vanilla, and a gentle, polished malt. On the palate, it also exhibits a matured character with some estery notes, pear, apple, soft cereal notes, refined sweetness and acidity, and a touch of light saltiness. The finish is not heavy but clean. [Good/Very Good] This is the latest release from Three Rivers' Dance series, Manochmore 1988, matured for 27 years. The fruity character of Manochmore is prominent in both aroma and flavor, with a diverse range of fruitiness accompanied by the estery nuances typical of long-matured malts. While the fruity profile gives it a slightly light impression, it has a smooth, refined balance of sweetness and acidity, making for an enjoyable drinking experience. This is a popular style that reflects Three Rivers' characteristic cask selection. However, such types have become less common recently, indicating that the cask was meticulously selected. This dram was enjoyed at Oudou in Sagamihara. #Manochmore (MANNOCHMORE)
