[Updated 12/15] (ABV 53.7%, Batch No. 0314B, Bottled 03/14) The nose without water, intense dessert fruits, pineapple upside-down cake, baked banana, various citrus, buttery hazelnuts... With (lots of) added water, a heavy, brooding scotch-mist settles into the glass, revealing oak spices, floral malt and a satisfying mustiness... On the palate; almost instantly numbing straight, brash and roudy. Smoothes out nicely with a healthy measure of water. Malt, orange-spice and a hint of bitter lemon zest. Finish is long, warming and nutty, with a distinct flavor of buttered sourdough bread. An unspeakable shame this 16 year version has been discontinued, I'm going to savor this for a long time... "Long Live Age Statements!" Dry glass: banana split with chocolate syrup. [Update] If you follow our beloved Ralfy's advice and blend cask strength bottling with standard bottlings you get fascinating results... Nadurra 16 with standard 12 about 50/50 with two teaspoons of water creates a strong and distinct buttery vanilla cake batter note, both nose and palate, AMAZING.
