Royal Lochnagar Distillery 16 Year Old Special Releases 2021 700ml

A refined example of Royal Lochnagar, somewhat shy on the nose yet full of character in the mouth. Easy to enjoy, especially as an aperitif. The very mellow and rounded nose swirls with subtle aromas. The top notes are lightly fruity, suggesting orange zest and green apple. They are encased after a while, in a hint of puff-pastry, all resting on a mossy and lightly woody base. Adding a splash of water adds to the fruit, now firm white grapes, and brings up the spiciness. Best enjoyed neat or with a couple of drops of water. *Limit of 2 bottles per customer.
