[55.6%・27 Years Old・Distilled in 1976・Bottled in 2004・Diageo Bottling・Limited Release]
Nose:
Buttery with some summery white fruits, white pepper hitting alongside fairly strong dose of sandalwood fragrance.
Palate & Finish:
Honey and nuts, poached pears and white peaches, soft nougat with some oak led saltiness as the crisp malt draws the tastebuds towards the spices.
Mint and white pepper, a tad on the bitter oaky side.
Thoughts:
A spicy Speysider showing its distillery characters, crisp with the malt with some of those lighthearted fruits on display.
