Braes of Glenlivet 1975 Tasting Note

The nose is quite fragrant with a little barley and hay. Delicate flowers and orange with flourishes of heather roots. The palate is dry and quite light. Toasty oak spices and sugared barley with a hint of almond sweetness. A little vanilla spice develops. The finish is of medium length with lots of cereal and malted barley and sugared mix peel.
