Description
Here’s what I wrote back in 2017…
“It’s a tad confusing: there are the official 175th Anniversary bottlings as indicated on the label and then there are these that sport the 175th outer packaging. This one is the latter.
From WhiskyMusings, “Oak heavy but still slightly farmy (although less so than the nose), more cantaloupe, grass with some honey and a slightly yeasty malt. Finish: Grassy, oak, hay, pea puree, and a small hint of papaya”.
Distilled 1988, bottled 2017, from 3 x Ex Bourbon casks, out-turn: 750 bottles. Official notes read, “Marzipan, icing sugar, crystallized oranges and soft oakiness.”
