This one needs some time to open up. It's a perfect candidate for another try in a few months... If you enjoy my videos, why not consider supporting my channel on Patreon for as little as a dollar a month? / foodquig
i haven't experienced it, but have heard from another channel that soap off-note can be a result of proofing down whisky too fast. copied this from a site "Some distillers add water very gradually, giving the spirit time to rest between additions. This is believed to prevent saponification, where the water brings out fats or oils from suspension in the distillate, which can give the whiskey a soapy taste." surprised a big brand like glenmo let the quality control slip, maybe the bottling plant isn't done themselves?
I think there are other things that can influence the soapiness of whisky... Otherwise, adding two spoons of water to a dram quickly could make it taste soapy easily, and I have never experienced soapiness in that way.
I agree with her. The old packaging of Glenmorangie looked dignified and expensive. I have a bottle of Calvados from an old small family farm with 100+ year old Pear orchards that they use to make their Calvados. Will make sure to put away a sample for you. Cheers
I don't usually pay much attention to the packaging because I'm more interested in what's inside the bottle. That being said, I like to have a variety of styles of packaging for the wall...
