When it comes to old, water-added short-aged bottles, there's often an impression that their condition tends to degrade. However, this bottle also showed a somewhat strong old character. That said, as a whisky, it is still alive and well, with nuances of ripe fruits and chocolate from the aroma, as well as a barley-like quality typical of short-aged whiskies. Upon tasting, there is an initial dominant perfume note, but it does not linger and fades almost entirely by the end. In such old bottles with water-added short aging, it's not uncommon to encounter perfumy elements that seem unrelated to the distillery's character, which is likely due to changes after bottling. The light-bodied flavor has a slightly mellowed feel, suggesting the bottle may have passed its peak drinking window. However, it's a flavorful whisky that offers a sense of the malt's aging process.
