How Triple Gold Reserve is almost a Different Scotch Everyday

The weekdays for most people in Metros are hectic and it is no different for me in Bangalore. So, it is difficult to meet friends on weekdays as many of us work on different time schedules. We make it a point to meet on weekends and unwind ourselves enjoying in the company. The Black Dog TGR is fairly new and it has caught our attention big time. 


The new addition to the Scotch family by Black Dog never fails to amaze you with its flavours. Each time we had the spirit it was giving out different taste and a little different unique aroma. We friends tend to debate on the different flavours experience while enjoying the Triple Gold Reserve. With the past posts describing about the various phases carried out in the production of whisky some tastes of the TGR were evident. But one thing we all observed that it tastes a little bit different than the previous occasion. Black Dog has managed to get so many flavours into the TGR and not all of them are recognised in a single tasting.


People have their own way of drinking Scotch, some tend to add a little bit of water, some ice cubes, some coke to the spirit, some ice + water and some others like to have it with green tea. But, I have heard from some bartenders and also from people who have a sound knowledge of the industry, that drinking is a lot different from tasting. Gulping down the liquid is only drinking it, and adding anything to Scotch definitely dilutes the flavour and aroma. I have explained in one of my previous posts about the correct way of tasting the Black Dog Triple Gold Reserve Scotch. I have observed a strong presence of vanilla in TGR. And the other day I could also feel a bit of citrus. The finish definitely gives out the pepper flavour and a bit of sweetness too. You will also feel Caramel, layers of honey, cinnamon and a bit of marzpin.
