Fruity and as expected. GlenGlassaugh GLENGLASSAUGH 1974 HART BROTHERS Art Collection 43% The aroma is of pears, oranges, apricots, a fruit cake full of cream, rich woodiness, and a faint resinous pine. When drinking it, the smooth mouthfeel is velvety and creamy, with a rich fruity cake sweetness similar to the aroma, a full-bodied flavor, and a long sweet finish. [Good/Very Good] This is GlenGlassaugh 1974 from Hart Brothers. This might be the first time encountering this Art Collection series from Hart Brothers. The aroma is a very mature, fruity, and creamy one, reminiscent of a mixed fruit cake. What was impressive was the resinous pine-like nuance, which I had previously noticed in a North American official bottling of the same 1974 vintage. When drinking it, the distinctiveness of fruits and cream in GlenGlassaugh stood out, with a smooth texture and a rich sweet flavor. It was delicious. #GlenGlassaugh (GLENGLASSAUGH)
