Mannochmore 25 Year Old 1990 (Special Release 2016)
A rare official bottling of Mannochmore here, bottled at natural cask strength as part of the 2016 Diageo Special Releases. Interestingly, it's matured in fresh American oak and European oak casks as well as first fill ex-bourbon American oak barrels and ex-Sherry European oak butts. 3,954 bottles were produced.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
More subtle at first than you may expect from its hue, cherry bakewell arrives first soon becoming bourbon-soaked cherries, vanilla and the excellent combination of raspberries and black pepper.
Palate
More pepper on the palate with red rope liquorice at first, although by the tail you're chewing on Pontefract Cakes. Excellent.
Finish
Sweet oak and a little more fruit with hints of clove and nougat.
