House of Hazelwood 50 year old The Huntsman, 43.8%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2024 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Blended Scotch Whisky
The nose is reassuringly rich rather than woody, with honey, heather in bloom, twists of citrus peel, seasoned oak, nutmeg, and canvas-bound antique books. Honeyed, with highlights of spun sugar, butterscotch, dried stone fruits, red apple, and pear, diluting to flavors of milk pudding with a vanilla creaminess. A beautiful aged blend, released in partnership with the 175 year old Savile Row bespoke tailoring house in London. (75 bottles)
