- An old-fashioned classic!
90
- Nose
- A little tight at first then comes masses of honeycomb, fresh vanilla pods and maturing tobacco leaves. A hint of mint.
- Palate
- Soft and mellow and just a little oily. More fruit than the nose, chocolate raisins and sugared lemon peel. Salted malt loaf.
- Finish
- Dry slowly with distant bonfires.
- Comment
- If this is the last release, as is rumoured, what a way to go.
