TASTING NOTES - TEELING 18YO RENAISSANCE SERIES 5

Nose

Mellow and creamy, giving off sweet lemon, red apple, loquat, unripe apricot and golden plum. A touch of honey or, even better, flower pollen. Sweetness is just vanilla powder, a very minor amount. Sophisticated, a true whisper.

Palate

Slightly more intense but still refined; heather honey, some sweet spices (cardamom, anise, gingerbread), a touch of fresh flowery component, a background of citric fruit continuing on the refreshing side. Perfectly crafted and continuously moving, complex.

Finish

Medium-short, very soft and sophisticated, moving from fresh unripe fruit to flowers to honey and sweet spices. Multi-dimensional

Teeling 18yo Renaissance Series 5 is a very nice product, where intensity is not the primary target such as in many contemporary product; in this masterly crafted product there are several aromas and tastes which are well balanced together to create a refined, silky carpet; just to name a few, fruit is pretty varied, sided by fresh/sweet spices, a touch of vanilla and honey. Alcohol is almost non-existing.
