Could as well have been a little earlier, not too sure. Colour: gold. Nose: it’s a dry and rather smoky one at first nosing, as older Glenlivets could be. Gravel and soot, then overripe apples, hay, cigars and walnuts, with a metallic touch. Some OBE must have happened, because it’s rather earthier than other old young Glenlivets. Mouth: big stuff, much bigger than contemporary Glenlivet twelves. Sour and tart apples, grapefruit skin, candy sugar, plus these metallic touches again. Apple crumble and strong tea after a few minutes. Not too sure it’s clear that I like it… Finish: long and ample, almost heavy, with some liquorice and more tea. Comments: big spirit of high quality. And it’s still quite easy to find…
