Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

very, very similar, just hotter at first nosing. It gets then a little waxier and less orangey, with more wax polish, encaustic and some bolder notes of marzipan. Just as nice!

restaurant Palate

beautiful again, creamier than the 1965, with more body. It’s also closer to a malt, with lots of dried fruits, wax, caramelized cereals again, roasted nuts, marzipan indeed, butterscotch, cake, sugared tea… Lots of oomph and a long and coating finish, at that. Another beautiful old Invergordon, very interesting because just like the 1965, it’s more ‘natural’ than the (great) sherried Invergordon one can find these days. 87 points . North British 1980 (60.3%, OB, new oak cask, circa 2000?) An off-commerce - I think - single grain whisky, probably made only out of corn – or in the majority, at least - as North British processes only corn these days (switching from one cereal to another one needs lots of time and equipment tweaking, I think)
