Great Southern Distillery – Limeburners Barrel M104 Single Malt (Bottle 095 / 372). Albany, Western Australia, Australia. ABV: 43.0%. Tasted at Botanica.
Colour: Pale gold.
Nose: Vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg & maybe even some roasted fennel seeds. Kind of a weird aroma to list, but it reminds me of the smell when I cook fennel encrusted pork belly. Now I’m hungry…
Palate: Sweet aniseed, almost a bit bourbon-ish. Oily mouthfeel.
Finish: Medium finish, warmth & sweet sultana flavours linger at the front of the palate.
Comments: Very different to the M67 I tasted in March, which to be fair was a cask strength compared to this dram at 43%. I expected it to be a little different as Limeburners only do single barrel releases, but the contrast is quite stark. Another great drop from Limeburners, if you like your whisky full flavoured grab yourself one. The differences between each release mean that there’s always a very good reason to keep exploring the range…all in the name of scientific research of course!
