Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

we're going to start crying because this style has now disappeared, gone, finite, over. Including at Balvenie. Incredible ripe quinces and mirabelles, quality mead, great old Sauternes, bright and juicy sultanas, and above all, lots of beeswax, it's like being in an old library or an antique shop in some chic streets. A sublime nose, extremely 'Balvenie'

restaurant Palate

needless to say, one could drink litres of it. There's a bit of pine sap, but all the rest follows the same line, quince, mirabelle, candied oranges, beeswax, old Sauternes, dried grapes, some old spices (old paprika), figs... Actually, it's dangerous

timer Finish

medium in length, but sublimely honeyed
