it’s really fun how both the grain and the malt are still alive and well after 47 years of marriage in wood! So almost a golden wedding but it seems that the grain says ‘coconut and pineapples’ whilst the malt says ‘chocolate’. Thankfully, both go very well together. I like the mint and eucalyptus from the wood very much as well, as well as these notes of old Sauternes and balsamico that develop over time. With water: more eucalyptus, liquorice wood, old palo cortado
restaurant Palate
the freshness is impressive although this is clearly some very old whisky. Some kind of elaborate mixture of herbal liqueurs, fruit wines and soft spices from the wood. With water: becomes fruitier and even fresher, water really ‘lifts’ it. Notes of mangos but also, just like in the sister cask from last year, an obvious rancio that hints at the best old cognacs
timer Finish
rather long, still without any excessive tannins or dryness. Cinnamon and oranges in the aftertaste
