"...Mouth: very, very similar to the 34yo now, even if it's rather drier again. Same kind of saltiness. Now, it does display a little more oomph and a fuller body after a while, getting even sort of big. Very good 'resinous' touches (mastic, mint flavoured chewing tobacco – well, last time I tried that it was 30 years ago). Excellent notes of salted liquorice as well. Finish: longer and fuller than the 34, on mint tea, liquorice and a little gentian." (5 Stars-Whiskyfun)
