I have a bottle of 16 year that is coming to its end and thought I should do a little documentation before it’s gone.
This is a 55.7% bottled 08/14, batch 0814D. I think Naddura is a great line, but new releases may be a disappointment from what others have said.
Nose was vanilla and fruit, like a hint of a very ripe honeydew melon.
Spicy on the palate neat and with a half ounce of water. Fruity in the sense of citrus with something like a tart berry or cherry, but in a pleasant way. I added another half ounce of water and the spice faded and made way for the sweeter and savory flavors to shine.
Finish is fantastic. The feel is full but not particularly heavy. I thought the nuttier notes were more present in the finish vs the palate. Tobacco also comes to mind but too light and likely more oak flavor.
