SMWS 77.14 (Glen Ord 20 yo 1987/2008)
2008, SMWS
Single malt - North Highlands
Gold
59.1% ABV
Dram
Nose: Milk chocolate, butterscotch, pear, raisins, rose, hints of lavender.
Mouthfeel: Medium body, syrupy, velvety, smooth.
Tasting: Sweet. Butterscotch, raisins, pears, oranges, melon, hints of chilli, hints of hazelnuts.
Finish: Medium, fades quickly, hazelnuts, pears, tea, oranges.
Comments:
Very floral, fruity and smooth. Less sweet that it smelt, which was a slight surprise, but great mouthfeel. Weak finish, lingering, and teasing a little, because the faint fruit notes tantalised me into taking another sip. Easy drinking, despite the strength, and doesn't take water well.
Verdict:
I like this a lot.
