It’s not everyday that you get try something older than yourself, It really isn’t everyday that i get to try something older than a lot of my close family. This 43YO whisky is one of the finest examples of Highland whisky that has ever graced my lips.

A nose of candle wax, pine, spruce, lime, lemon and subtle smoke with vanilla. The palate delivers a subtle style, nothing too crazy in the way of different flavours, most of the flavours form the nose are backed up with this, but my god the texture! It’s unbelievable! Words can’t even do it justice. As it develops it becomes layered and spicy from oak influence and the natural cask strength of it. The finish is long, layered, balanced and in all honesty one of the finest examples of old single malt on the planet. It’s cheaper and older than most of it’s rivals, a once in a life time experience! Thank you to my dear friend for letting me try it! Cheers!
