Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

hmmm… This is drier, slightly metallic and, most curiously considering this baby’s age, also very pearish. It’s not OBE, it’s rather a style that’s very different. Also more ashy, slightly spirity, grainy… Could it be a fake 1938 Linkwood? Hmmm… Let’s check the palate…

timer Finish

short, cardboardy and rather tea-ish
