Overall
Score
8.4
Nose
Perfumed, initially dominated by intense menthol/peppermint aromas. There's exotic spices, flowers: allspice, dried leather, beech nuts, oak/applewood. A smokiness dominates as it develops.
Palate
Spice and peat smoke. Woody yet somehow graceful.
Finish
Woody dry.
Comment
Incredible for a whisky this age to have retained such charm and elegance. A faded beauty.
