Deanston 34 Year Old Rare Find Gleann Mor

Nose - Deeply mature and wonderfully evocative, opening with the rich, polished character of lacquered mahogany panelling. Stewed plums and Christmas pudding bring layers of dark fruit and spice, while roasted almonds add a subtle nuttiness. Berry compote sits beneath it all, with just a touch of mentholated oak bringing freshness.

Palate - Restrained yet profound, showing the quiet complexity that comes with beautifully integrated old sherry influence. Fruit cake and deep stewed fruits lead into polished wood,dried tobacco leaves and old, cracked leather. Raspberry liqueur adds a concentrated flash of red fruit, while dry cinnamon spice provides warmth and structure

Finish - Refined and wonderfully composed, with mature oak and deep stewed fruits gradually giving way to the soft, malty sweetness of malt loaf
