Old Rarity 12 yo (40%, OB, Bulloch & Lade,)
Bulloch & Lade a.k.a. B&L suggest Caol Ila, as that company was holding the licence. Old Rarity was their ‘deluxe’ brand.
Colour: Gold.
Nose: Smoky,. Fig cake,, cinnamon cake, hints of cured ham, then quite a lot of moist tobacco, , a touch of mint water…
Mouth: It’s soft and light, but it still roars, with some peaters (old Coal Ila, probably), some biscuits, a salty side, those cooked clams, and more generally, a rather fantastic coastal profile.
Finish: Relatively short, but oranges are arriving, together with smoked meats.
