Nose

Understated peat offers no more than a smoky sprinkling on the juicy apple and vanilla.

Palate

Much fuller and fatter in the mouth with an immediate outbreak of spices. Impressively delicate.

Finish

Medium length and perhaps just a little thin. The coffee feature of old is less intense. Holds its age impressively.

Comment

A quite delicious version but not anything like the heavier, more complex 17 Years Old of old.
