Invergordon 50 Year Old 1964 (cask 2) - Xtra Old Particular (Douglas Laing)
Invergordon grain whisky matured in a single cask for half a century! Distilled in November 1964, this Master of Malt full bottle exclusive (also included as 3cl drams in a proportion of Drinks by the Dram's 2015 Whisky Advent Calendar) was bottled by Douglas Laing in 2015 as part of their extra excellent Xtra Old Particular range.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Honey-drenched porridge, coffee bean and cacao powder. Lingering hints of old oak (as you would expect from a 50 year old whisky!).
Palate
A very luxurious mouthfeel. Bourbon-esque as it opens, with caramel and buttered toast. Develops almost Cognac-like rancio/vegetal notes later on.
Finish
Biscotti dipped in Crème de cassis.
