The Last Drop 1967 Glen Garioch

Andrew Rankin’s tasting notes: “This magnificent malt has matured with elegance. Heady notes of cognac-soaked fruitcake, marzipan and icing are balanced with ripe apricot and a hit of peaty smokiness, softening to a delicious vanilla and honey nectar." An extract from The Whisky Bible 2015 2015 Single Malt Scotch Whisky of the Year (96.5 points) “Profound and chunky oak, tamed by sharp kumquat notes, diffused by the friendliest - slightly cocoa-softened - peat reek. The oak pulses out soft liquorice and hickory. The tannins bite but the smoke and citrus come rushing to the rescue... creamy fudge and liquorice bourbon. A long finish with a delightful tangle of oaky roots and peaty off-shoots make way first for the citrus and then a fabulous pounding spiciness.”
