Serge Valentin (84)

Wait, 2020-2005, that's not 16 years! But who's counting? Colour: deep gold. Nose: nice, fresher, more coastal, probably peatier, drier yet, with ashes, seaweed, a little mint, perhaps myrtle… No big sherry here, no excessive leafiness, no chocolate and coffee on the loose, no meat and mustard… So it is a cleaner DE, I would say. So far. Mouth: well, there is some leather, ginger, leaves and raisins, but that goes pretty well with the spirits sweetness. Good salt and oranges, tar. I would say we're a little closer to the 'regular' 16 years old, which cannot be bad news. Finish: good length, smoke, leather, cracked pepper, earth and mint, touch of molasses. Comments: it is not as sweetish as the '2019' and certainly less bittersweet. Rather more to my liking. Couldn't they switch to oloroso? No, I know, don't shoot, I was just jesting a wee bit.
