Nose
Flowery-fruity. Dry. Camomile. Lemon grass. Palate
Firm, smooth, lightly creamy. Delicately sweet in the middle. Icing sugar. Wonderfully subtle, complex and teasing. Becoming dry. Finish
Hint of burnt sugar and sulphur. Comment
A reminder of a great Lowland malt lost.
Jim Murray
Nose
Wonderfully complex with a maltiness punctuated by a series of grassy, spicy and coal-smoky notes. Fabulously delicate. Palate
Mouth watering at first; a wonderful display of light and heavy malt tones. Finish
Drying with some soft vanilla-caramel notes. Comment
A flawless example of the most luscious and complex Lowlander of them all. Should be bottled at least 43% abv, though, to highlight the full complexity.
