Famille Cabanne The Whisky jury - Lot 100 - 70cl

Famille Cabanne ‘Lot no.100’ (46.2%, The Whisky Jury, 100th release, Grande Champagne, 199 bottles) From Whiskyfun.com Five stars All rijks, I mean, all right! (not very funny, S.) The spirits from The Whisky Jury never fail to impress, and this 100th release promises to be even more so, as it seems to hold a cognac from Cabanne that is 100 years old or more. We're not entirely sure if it spent all those years in wood—perhaps some time in demi-johns, but perhaps not. Maybe we’ll find out, but in the meantime... Colour: reddish amber. Nose: good heavens, what a nose! Incredibly aromatic yet without a trace of vulgarity—quite the opposite—with a hint of old Sauternes, broom flowers, honeysuckle, and dozens of different kinds of honey. Then, finally, a little spoonful of apricot jam, like a diamond nestled in a golden diadem (getting carried away, am I?). A few more humble pine needles round off the nose. Mouth: the magic of time. There’s still firmness, with those slightly resinous notes that come with great age, but also a cascade of dried and cooked fruits, led by sultanas and, as often, peach liqueur and apricot jam. Magnificent notes of small dried figs, with a touch of argan oil adding structure in the background. Finish: medium length but firm, always with that sublime balance of pine and sultanas. Perfectly ripe yellow peach and a little coffee bring up the rear with flair. Comments: I was tempted to give this 100-year-old a perfect 100 points for the 100th anniversary, and let’s say I symbolically do, but strictly speaking, we’re closer to a very high... SGP: 661 - 92 points.
