Master of Malt 50 Year Old Speyside (1st Edition) 70cl Whisky

“Again a slightly astringent nose, but displaying a wonderful freshness, you would have though it wasn’t a day over 30! Buckets of mature honey and old, toffee’d, slightly sawdusty bourbon oak with a lovely citrus thread and a touch of smoke. Superb depth and complexity. The gentle oak vanillins open the show followed by some wonderfully juicy barley and honey. Mellow and complex with a slight grassy character. Very honeyed with a soupcon of peat smoke on the middle. Luscious and smooth with peat smoke turning to coal dust and the honey becoming quiet buttery. The length is excellent, and to think that it has been in the cask this long and still retains a lovely freshness is a testament to the character and longevity of this whisky. ”
