Speyside 60 Year Old Master of Malt

Notes from the producer:
Nose: Beautiful malt to the fore, with a sublime backing of nutmeg, cocoa butter and raisin. Gentle waves of soft white grapes, custard apples and golden syrup. Astonishingly refined oaken notes.

Palate: Creamy, mouth-filling palate entry delivering a touch of chocolate and ground allspice. Quite tropical too - there’s a note of coconut, perhaps mango. An ethereal high-note akin to tomato stems. With time, it becomes quite herbal, with a potpourri-like character, sitting very nicely atop a solid core of rich, thick malt.

Finish: A long, elegant finish, trailing off gracefully with pipe tobacco, molasses and dried herbs. A slice of tangy green apple lingers.

A hugely impressive 60 year old Speyside single malt matured for the full term in European sherry oak and bottled by the leading UK retailer Master of Malt. 

This bottling was given the 'Editor's Choice' award by Whisky Magazine around the time of its release. 

Presented in a straightforward velvet lined wooden box which could be given to an engraver to add a personal touch.
