Teacher’s Highland Cream 1970’s Bottling 26 Fl ozs

Teacher’s means Ardmore, as you know.

Colour: gold.

Nose: more fruits again, all kinds. Various apples and various pears, plus mint and eucalyptus After five minutes, notes of old sweet white wine plus some mead.

Mouth: superb! Everybody’s looking for old White Horses, but I say old Teacher’s are worth it as well. Old yellow chartreuse, other herbal liqueurs, a peatiness that remains well defined, a feeling of smoky/tarry mints, plus, even more important, a big fat and yet very ‘nervous’ mouth feel. Did they really add any grain whisky to this fabulous composition?

Finish: very long, amazingly big and balanced. Some lemon now, grapefruits, a touch of salt… Spectacular peaty blend,
