An immensely perfumed Bowmore in it's true form from this era. A very nice dram at a high strength but this whisky has enough weight to balance all the flavours with the strength.
A truly remarkable bourbon, bottled at the old-style traditional 107-proof after an incredible (for a bourbon) 23 years of ageing. Gloriously long, complex palate. Whisky Bible 2011 & 2012: Bourbon of the Year (18 Years & Over, Multiple Barrel); 95.5 Points
A 23 year old Glendullan released as part of Diageo's Rare Malts series, highlighting whiskies from some of their lesser known distilleries. This one is from 1974, a couple of years after they built a second distillery on the site, which eventually went on to replace the original 1897 plant.
A gorgeous colour on this 1986 single cask Glengoyne, bottled from a single sherry butt. Sherried Glengoyne can be particularly sublime, so hopes are high for this.
