Product: Malt Whisky, Single malt

Bottler: Signatory
47.1% alc, 0.7l
A very exciting independent bottling of 50 year old Glen Mhor single malt Scotch whisky - a rare whisky from a distillery which closed back in the early 1980s. This particularly bottling was distilled in 1965 and initially aged in a refill butt, though was finished for 88 months in Oloroso Sherry oak! It was bottled by Signatory for their Cask Strength Collection Rare Reserve, with 353 bottles produced.
Nose: Old leather, polished oak, almonds and Cognac-like rancio.
Palate: More of that rich, vegetal rancio on the palate, now paired with a very light spritz of citrus and mint. Cooking spices develop later on, with a big whack of allspice.
Finish: Cigar box and maybe a touch of Sherried oak.
