Glen Calder 1949 40yo

Glen Calder 40yo 1949 40%

Glen Calder is a Gordon & MacPhail Blend



Nose : Bold and warming, sweet, tropical fruit bomb, quite intense

Palate: Very very oily, faint hint of rubber, maybe it's just a rubberesque oily viscosity. Very tropical and fruity, followed by the nice dry woody spicyness only seen in very old whiskies

Finish : long and warming, spicy and dry

Comment: I don't think a lot of water was added to get this down to 40%

Rating 90/100
