The Antiquary, 1977 vintage, 46%

Price: 300.00 ● Issue: Winter 2008 ● Reviewer: John Hansell ● Category: Blended Scotch Whisky

Deep on the nose and palate, with notes of dark rum, dried fruit, roasted nuts, dark chocolate, cinnamon, polished leather, charcoal, and a suggestion of peat. Dry, resinous finish. Bonus points for intrigue.
