2 Dec 2015
41 year old single malt Scotch whisky from the Glenlivet distillery, which was initially aged in a hogshead cask and finished (for 48 months) in Oloroso Sherry oak! This was distilled in March 1974 and bottled in December 2015 by Signatory for their Cask Strength Collection Rare Reserve. 363 bottles were produced.
Zested orange peel, liquorice root, cinnamon, robust vanilla and dark chocolate coming from the Sherried elements.
Roasted barley, toasty oak and juicy red apple. A hint of farmhouse butter.
Very long, with a touch of oily walnut. Almond and cherry bakewell develop later on.
