Black Bull 30 year old Sir Nick Faldo Edition, 50%

Price: 350 Issue: Fall 2024 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Blended Scotch Whisky

Rich fruitcake, black cherry, dried flowers chocolate-covered Turkish delight, walnut oil, and seasoned oak on the nose make this pretty special. The mouthfeel is thick and rich with flavors of heather honey, toffee, dried fruit, peppercorn, baked apple, fruitcake, nutmeg, hazelnut praline, black cherry, and milk chocolate. A long, satisfying finish delivers the same intensity of dried fruit, chocolate, and spice. A highly recommended blend aged to perfection.
