GlenDronach Revival 15 Year (2009-2015)

Nose: At first nosing it's dense sherry, christmas spice, and oak. Found myself wondering where the event was. After breathing (for weeks), it opened up considerably and added intense dark chocolate, coffee, lessened the butter into a mild savory note. Palate: Lovely profile with a dense mouthfeel. Coffee, dark chocolate, and pipe tobacco all over the place. It's clearly cask-driven, but wow is it good. It's savory and yet dessert-like. Christmas spice and drying oak present again with also some leather. Delicious and comforting. Finish: Sherry again, lingering spice, slightly drying oak, and coffee. Lovely stuff. Final Thoughts: Something to sip in a library built of mahogany with leather-bound books. I can see why everyone likes this. It's a keeper.
