Nose: Has that old whisky smell, anything pre 80’s has a unique character and this is no different. Dark dried fruits and nuts. Some notes of woodsy character as well. Palate: That old library taste, like leather bound books with old antique furniture. More dark dried fruits with a bitter chocolate an nuttiness moving you into the finish. Finish: More of that dark chocolate on the finish with the bitterness but is well rounded with molasses and marzipan.
