Купажная выдержка в бурбоне, тропически-фруктовый маслянистый профиль с солёно-минеральным, «машинным» оттенком. Опытные ставят 89–91 стабильно; часть остальных резко снижает оценку из-за жёсткого, обжигающего спирта.
развернуть подробно
В аромате доминируют тропические фрукты — ананас, манго, личи, зелёный виноград, — дополненные ванилью, тёплым мёдом, карамелью, свежескошенной травой, мятой и отчётливой минеральностью с солёным оттенком в носоглотке; часть авторов отмечает смолистые и древесно-медовые тона, а также «технический», металлически-машинный, слегка маслянистый характер. Вкус маслянистый и плотный, почти без спиртового жжения при полном раскрытии: сладкие тропические фрукты, молочный шоколад, мёд, ваниль, коричневый сахар, белый перец и масло бергамота переходят в выраженную солёность с тёплыми пряностями; послевкусие среднее-долгое, солёно-пряное с фруктовым и металлическим отзвуком. Хвалят чистоту, насыщенность при 25 годах и высоком градусе, маслянистое тело и гармонию солёного с минеральным.
Опытные ревьюеры оценивают виски ровно и высоко (89–91), считая это типичным, надёжным Imperial без сюрпризов и ошибок — «всегда рад, но дороже 150 евро не отдал бы». Расхождение создают менее опытные авторы: несколько оценок опущены до 82–86 из-за слишком острого, обжигающего и несбалансированного старта, где фруктовость трудно уловить без разбавления, а послевкусие сводится к перцу-чили и спирту. Таким образом, при цветочно-фруктовом, всеми признанном носе оценки вкуса резко расходятся — от «слоистого и мощного» у опытных до «изнурительного» у остальных.

A good amount of water can get in there, then it is less violent and has more facets to offer. Overall, it is difficult to rate, the nose alone shows it is age-appropriate and convincing. For the full review go here: https://halbendrinks.de/2022/07/10/relicts-of-imperial/

The user Sealgair describes the flavors very well. Thanks for that! Almost intense for an Imperial. A very good and clean whisky around 89 to 91 points. Actually a very typical Imperial. If you want to know how an Imperial smells and tastes: just like that. Never had one that scored less than 88 or more than 91. Everyone had exactly this profile. Is that boring or is that solid? I'll put it this way: I'm always happy, but no bottle would have been worth more than 150 euros to me.

.5 Beautifully intense bourbon maturation at 25 years and still almost 57 percent. The aromas are slightly resinous, clean and intense. No surprises or mistakes. Solid 90 to 91 points. Oh yes: vanilla, barley sugar, light wood, blah blah. |

As the best vintage of the 90s, 1995 is a very sincere imperial at this alcohol level. Unlike the usual lightness of many imperials, this one leans towards tropical fruits, full-bodied, oily, with a salty and mineral-metallic character, which is a significant plus for me.

The aroma is first of tropical fruits like pineapple and mango, warm honey, with hints of freshly cut grass, ice cream, a touch of mint and a mineral sensation. Deeper sniffing reveals notes of caramel mocha, with a salty finish in the nasal cavity. |

The body is oily and robust, with almost no alcoholic, featuring sweet tropical fruits, milk chocolate, white pepper, bergamot oil, and a hint of saltiness. |

Long and smooth, still featuring tropical fruits, oak wood notes, and a final metallic aroma rising up. |
tasted in Oct, 2024 Rich yellow fruit explodes in the middle, complex and pleasant

Super nice nose. Flowery, heather, meadow followed by fruity light aromas and a bit sharp in the smell ... |

Very sharp start ... untypical for Imperial. This is followed by fruity aromas that are very difficult to filter because it is very hot. You'd have to play with water ... |

Mega good and flowery nose! Reminds me a lot of the Highland Park 25, which convinces with the aroma all along the line. |

The state of drinking is gone. What a pity.
Both the smell and the taste are very reminiscent of old, mature Ben Nevis bottlings from the 60s / 70s. Like this one, it is unusual, very distinctive, and difficult to pin down. There are resinous and woody honey aromas, grape sugar, candied apple and a little lemon balm, spearmint and myrrh - without incense, alternated with a chemical-technical component, mineral, earthy, machine hall, bromine, metallic, a little greasy / oily and salty. It reads strange, but is simply coherent and inspiring in harmony. The taste starts out quite peppery, the alcohol packs a punch with sweet, candied ginger. With the second sip, it is tamer, creamy with grilled marshmallows, caramel and toffee, orange zest, bergamot oil, boskop, red grapes, tart, spicy kitchen herbs, cress, bay leaf and green tea. The aftertaste leads through all the aromas again, the resin is there again and everything sticks well.

Upon pouring, the beer has a robust body, rich in tropical fruit flavors, somewhat reminiscent of TDL, with notes of green grapes, pineapple, mango, and lychee, a touch of industrial character, a subtle and pleasant aroma of engine oil, metallic notes, and minerality. After aeration, the vanilla, creamy, and candy flavors become intense, with a deep sniff revealing a refreshing minty and salty note. |

Upon pouring, it has a strong oily texture, rich flavor, and powerful body. On the palate, there is no alcohol; honey, vanilla, and brown sugar burst with tropical fruit, quickly followed by a pronounced saltiness accompanied by warm spices, the saltiness and spice blending harmoniously. The layers are distinct, and the body is robust and powerful. After aeration, the body becomes softer, the saltiness and spices in the mid-to-late stages become much more pleasant, and a slight astringency from grape seeds emerges. |

Medium to long flavor profile, dominated by saltiness and spices, with a hint of fruitiness. |
