Description

A special limited edition bottling from anCnoc, this 35 year old bottling retains a youthful edge, although it has benefited from its time in the wood.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

Baked fruit, especially apples and sultanas, with a soft citric sweetness like lemon curd. There's a slight woodiness, but this smells very young for a 35 year old.

Palate

More baked fruits, this time with cinnamon. A good apple crumble with custard, there are some biscuit notes too but the cinnamon and pepper leads towards the end, with the some gentle cedar wood.

Finish

Sweet dark chocolate and black pepper with a soft cinnamon note.

Overall

A still youthful and inviting 35 year old, this is nevertheless an dram with some depth.
