Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
rather discreet – that’s an euphemism -, starting almost like cold tea. Hints of green bananas, plums, peach skin, a little ginger, vanilla, maybe cola, ginger ale… Well, all I can say is that this one is very moderately expressive
restaurant Palate
a rather sweet but whispering attack (well, a kitten’s scratch actually). Banana again, tea… And then the wood and its spicy procession (nutmeg and such)… And then the medium long finish, that is maybe the best part, most unexpectedly. Sure it’s a little cardboardy but also nicely fruity (banana, coconut and maybe pineapple). Anyway, this series is very moderately priced so I’d say it’s a good occasion to impress your friends with a very old malt. Plus, it’s still quite drinkable – and not exactly toothless. 78 points . Caperdonich 36 yo 1967/2004 (57.9%, Douglas Laing Platinum, 167 bottles) I know everyone already tasted this one but here I am…
