- Nose
- Hint of lemon marmalade.
- Palate
- Light but creamy. Lightly nutty. Then oily perfuminess.
- Finish
- Oily. Nutty. Orange peel.
- Comment
- Gentle, but quite succulent.

- Nose
- Fabulously bitter sweet nose, breakfast time stuff with marmalade and honey. Thrilling complexity.
- Palate
- Again, a peculiarly thin mouthfeel. Begins oaky dry and then a surge of malt helps sweeten things a little. And a delightful spice buzz forms a permanent, lively strata.
- Finish
- A milky oakiness with dry coconut nuttiness.
- Comment
- An improvement from the 17 Years Old of old, which doesn't even begin to show its big age.
