Tasting Notes
Colour
amber – brownish
air Nose
oh yes, this is nice, even if less fruity and less ‘different’ than the Wieber. The oloroso character is more obvious, with quite some rum and raisins, Xmas cake and chocolate. Now I get some smoke as well but that might be the power of my mind (not that my mind is that powerful, that is – don’t get me wrong) Nice notes of lovage and soy sauce after a moment, together with some smoked ham and game. Very classical, it reminds me of some Glenfarclasses

ah, yes, it’s a heavy oloroso-influenced malt. Very toffeeish, rumy and raisiny, sort of thick even if it’s not unbearable at all. Gets then sort of cardboardy, thanks to the rather heavy, spicy tannins which start to invade your mouth. Nothing excessive, though. Some nice and playful notes of tangerines, lemon drops and fresh pineapple do come through after a while, and sort of re-balance the whole. Not one you should taste while in a rush, no doubt, as it keeps developing, gaining complexity and vivacity… Very good! The finish is rather long, still perhaps a bit too drying but hey, 33 years! Anyway, 90 points for this very classical sherry monster. Glen Keith 1967/2003 (46%, G&M Connoisseur’s Choice)
