1980s House of Lords 12 year old Scotch Whisky 12 year old

A blend related to Edradour at that time, as it’s base address was Glenforres-Glenlivet Distillery, that is to say Edradour. This particular one used to be imported by Champagne Besserat de Bellefon. Colour: gold. Nose: Very dry. Flour, chalk, cardboard, artichokes, then rather leather, black tea, a touch of soap, and something feinty. Mouth: better than expected, rather meaty and salty, with roasted chestnuts, tobacco, and chocolate in the aftertaste. Gets then even meatier. Solid body, feels more like 43%. Finish: quite long, salty and smoky. Smoked chicken soup
