Convalmore 1962 18 YO, 46 %

Distilled November 1962, and bottled December 1980. Bottled by Wm. Cadenhead.

Nose: Delicate and softly fruity. Fluffy clouds of vanilla and almond milk create an elegant opening. With time, white pepper and pencil shavings emerge, alongside the impression of expensive confectionery.

Taste: Medium bodied and medium sweet, with gentle oaky spices and just a touch of astringency. Well behaved, balanced, mild and highly approachable.

Finish: Very long. Menthol and deep sweetness mingle with mild spices and complex orchard fruits. Gradually drying towards the end.

Comment: Delicate elegance with impressive persistence.
