[49.7%・28 Years Old・Distilled in 1987・Berry Bros & Rudd Bottling・Cask No. 2484・Single Cask Release of 185 Bottles]
Nose:
A juicy number with soft pears and lemon twists, the malt lays a gentle foundation and complimented by the vanilla and sandalwood notes. Fragrant barley aromas with hints of raspberry coulis and icing sugar. Natural and attractive.
Palate & Finish:
Delicious burst of Nashi pears and lemons, with some Sunkist oranges and vanilla nougats also. Golden honey and malty lager with the oak dipping in politely to give a touch of drying texture. Some yeasty note and spices on the back palate.
Lingering traces of barley sugar and cinnamon spices in the finish with a wee touch of sweet pitted cherries.
Thoughts:
A tasty bunny that shows plenty of restraint, balanced and sophisticated.
