This one’s brand new, so no pictures yet, but very old Invergordons have always been my favourite grains. Especially the sherried ones. Colour: gold. Nose: why is that that this is more complex? Just a matter of age? Wonderful slightly petroly tropical fruits, mangos and coconuts but also old tools, Meursault, vanilla, hints of oyster mushrooms, pine needles… So, why was Invergordon better? Mouth: very lovely soft coconut water (and I’m not a fan of coconut in my whisky), vanilla cake, green tea, moss, old chardonnay again, raw mushrooms… And, most of all, no obvious dull oakiness, despite both the old age and the low strength. Finish: a little short perhaps, but delicate and rose-y. Old perfume. Comments: age does bring complexity. Fact. One of the rare single grain whiskies worth bottling as a single, IMHO.
