Tasting Notes

Colour

pale amber

air Nose

starts very meaty ans very grassy, really on smoked ham and on parsley (both fresh and dried) and chives. There’s also whiffs of dried kelp, wrack… Rather old style, a little dirty I must say, not too straight so to speak. Aromas we’re not really used to anymore with ‘modern’ whiskies

restaurant Palate

a rather weakish attack, mostly on chives (unusual), taking off very sloooooowly; never getting really bold. A little dusty again, with also quite some cinnamon and nutmeg from the wood. Other than that it’s mostly on cereals and never recovers after the weakish attack

timer Finish

short. Now, it may be the old bottle, oxidation and so on. 75 points , still (interesting old style). Glenlochy 1974 (40%, Gordon & MacPhail Connoisseurs Choice, no year of bottling, circa 1992)
