Van Ryns 12 years old Distillers Reserve Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Van Ryns

“Quite interesting brandy: smells of CocaCola, tastes of curry and finish with candies.”

86
Van Ryn's 12 Year Old Distiller's Reserve Brandy
A South African brandy, Van Ryn's Distillers Reserve is aged for 12 years, and it won at the International Wine and Spirits Competition three times.

This dram has a tawny-like color.

Nose (86): strong. grapes, floral, citrus, honey, wood, a little lavender, nutmeg.

Palate (86): smooth, oily. grapes, wood, a little curry, floral, citrus. Yes! Curry, in a brandy! Interesting.

Finish (87): long. grapes, citrus, floral, candies.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Van Ryn's 12 Year Old Distiller's Reserve Brandy with 86 points over 100.
