Nice old caperdonich. However it doesn`t quite reach the level of some of the 1972`s. The dryness and lesser amounts of fruit hold it back.

Although it starts nicely with pine tree`s, resin, wood, honey and dry abricots, the alcohol gives it a harsh pepery feeling. It needs some water, but it also flattens the whisky.

Lafroy gave this whisky 89 points

Color

Deep copper

Nose

Oak with fresh resin, fresh blackberries, citrus peel notes, wood varnish, light and fresh. It´s definitely sweet and smooth with hints of poppy-seed cake.

Taste

It starts with aggressive sweetness, honey, powerful dryness and spiciness, eventually chili. After a few seconds it gets back to dryness and cake with intensive alcohol.

Finish

Soft medium-long finish with notes of sponge cake and alcohol.
