Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

definitely drier, much less on dried fruits, more herbal, with notes of hay and cut grass, some nuts, though we’re not really finding any of that ‘peat’ character you sometimes get in immediate post-war Macallans. Still, there’s a lovely beeswax note

restaurant Palate

I’m 100% certain there’s been some positive OBE. It’s certainly dry and fragile, even slightly cardboardy, but we’re far from the near disaster we noted back in the day. Chamomile tea, cake crumbs, and some rather pretty wax

timer Finish

short, dry. Banana skin, then a touch of ash
