We always welcome the high-value, full-flavour world of super-old single grain here at MoM Towers, so this well-matured, handsomely-presented Scotch whisky from Cambus is gratefully receieved. Distilled back in 1976, this beauty was matured in a refill hogshead before being bottled up by Douglas Laing for its Xtra Old Particular range at a cask strength 49.1% ABV. Super stuff.
Sweet spices prickle through hot custard, Conference pears, old oak, and cereal sweetness.
Rhum and raisin ice-cream, black pepper, and white chocolate are joined by a medley of sweet orchard fruit.
Long and creamy, like butterscotch poured over porridge oats.
