Tullibardine TULLIBARDINE 1964-1992 27yo Cadenhead Authentic Collection 51.2%
The aroma featured a strong yet rustic grain note, Yatsuhashi-like cinnamon, faint plum jam, and subtle earthy and leather undertones.
On the palate, it was spicy with a sherry embrace, plum jam, pronounced grain umami, cinnamon, a touch of meatiness, richness, and a balance of sweetness and dryness.
【Very Good】
This is the Tullibardine 1964, aged for 27 years, bottled by Cadenhead in the green-bottled Authentic Collection in 1992.
While no specific details are mentioned, the sherry influence was present but not overpowering, accompanied by a jammy fruitiness.
A distinct Yatsuhashi-like cinnamon character reminiscent of Tullibardine was evident, alongside Cadenhead's rustic grain notes.
Subtle earthiness and peat-like nuances reminiscent of the early 1960s were also detectable from deeper within, adding to its impression.
Each characteristic was well-balanced, making it quite delicious. However, it seemed to improve further after some time had passed since opening.
If unopened, it might be worth aging for another 10 years in the bottle.
