Serge Valentin (87)

Colour: straw.

Nose: this is completely different from the younger 12, much, much fruitier and even sort of sugary, on tinned pineapples, marshmallows and, well, ‘a newly opened box of Turkish delights’. Also a faint mouldiness and finally the same kind of smokiness as in the other 12 (used matches, smoked tea.) The two oldies converge after a good fifteen minutes but this one never gets as majestic as the ‘Original’. Very nice, still.

Mouth: starts excellently, on various fruit jams (quinces, plums) and orange marmalade, with quite some spices coming to the front after that (cinnamon, white pepper.) It does not really get any more complex and stays on these notes after that, which isn’t a problem as it’s beautiful whisky. Maybe more ripe apples and juts a little mint.

Finish: medium long, on ripe apples and cinnamon.
