1952 - 1977 The Glenlivet 25 Year Old “ The Queen’s Silver Jubilee”

Colour: Dark amber.

Nose: All on all kinds of roasted nuts (lots of pecans), high-end fruitcake, truckloads of dried figs and that fabulous smokiness that one can fnd in some old Glenlivets. Goes on with balsamico, then parsley, chives and dill, then pine resin, wax polish… Endless development. Just fab. Ah, also fantastic notes of old walnut liqueur…

Mouth: Amazingly thick, creamy, concentrated, starting on old walnuts just like before, roasted coffee beans and bananas flambéed. Notes of pepper and lots of cinnamon.

Finish: Rather long, dry, balanced, absolutely fresh… Pure joy. And so drinkable! Another old masterpiece.
