Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep golden amber; rich and lustrous from 30 years of maturation and port cask influence, very slow thick legs
Nose
Warm and sweet with salty sea air and musk. Dusty and woody spices, vanilla pod, beeswax polish, and dark dried fruits. The 30-year peat has evolved into something ethereal and incense-like
Palate
Stone fruit medley leads into vegetal grassiness, with bitterness tempered into spice, returning to fruit with sun-warmed peach. Prominent soft peat smoke — cinnamon, clove, all-spice, nutmeg, and toasted oak. Heavy notes of citrus oil, hard caramel, and honeycomb. Full-bodied with extraordinary depth. Extremely rare peated Speyside at this age
Finish
Very long finish with cocoa toning down the sweet brightness. Peat smoke, dried fruit, and oak spice persist. Beeswax and leather emerge. One of the most unusual whiskies in Scotch — a 30-year-old peated Speyside malt is virtually unheard of
