43% Glenmorangie 1 Litre Sixteen Man of Tain 10 Year 2000's Bottling

Colour: straw

Nose: ‘Minerality’, rather quite some fruits (gooseberries again, peaches) and vanilla together with hints of yoghurt and mash. Vanilla-flavoured yoghurt? Also hints of apple liqueur (manzana verde). Faint whiffs of cologne in the background.

Mouth: quite fresh but much more discreet than the old 10, all on fruit juices and liqueurs as well as vanilla crème and caramel. Gets more and more caramelly actually, with the same notes of crème brulée as in the old one. Notes of marshmallows or Turkish delights,

There is some fruitiness that is similar to the Bowmore 12 black squat bottle from the 1970’s.A nice collector item.
