- Nose
- Mature notes cut with celery salt, sweet oak. Dried peach, musk, and coconut. Complex.
- Palate
- Good flow of flavours: Bounty bars, light cinnamon, then ginger, stewed rhubarb, clove and ripe fruits. There's a strawberry lift and some marzipan as well. Medium weight.
- Finish
- Long and elegant.
- Comment
- You'd never guess this was 35. Great life, balance and bags of character. A beauty.
82
- Nose
- Raisins, Madeira cake and ginger thins. Underneath this is a melange of fruits: baked apples, pineapple and strawberry. Perhaps a light, sweet soapiness.
- Palate
- A silky almost soapy texture, with blueberry muffin, and strawberry-flavoured toffee.
- Finish
- Burnt wood and more strawberry.
- Comment
- No water required, as this brought out a soapiness for me. A very satisfying old malt.
