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.
Score: 9
