1988 Signatory Vintage

Age: 18 yo

Vintage: 1988

Strength: 43%

Bottler: Signatory

Tasting Notes:

N: Aniseed with a background hint of menthol. Malty.Next day the empty glass smells unmistakably of maple syrup, I'm told.

P: Sweetish with lemon and, after a while, chocolate appears

F: Medium to short finish. Fruity and some malt. (No raw cauliflower!)

C: I had concerns about what this would be like after suggestions that raw cauliflower was common in Strathmill.
Fortunately, that turned out not to be the case for this bottle which, though not at all complex, is a very drinkable dram
