This old Macduff shows a beautiful restrained sherry influence, one you can only really find in long-matured liquid. The nose is fruity, while the palate is a bit more muscular. Love it!
At the risk of sounding like Jim Murray: what's up with that damn sulphur?! Anyway, it doesn't ruin this Invergordon per se, but Ican't say I'm too fond of it either.
A whisky can have a great nose and fantastic taste, but can still disappoint if it doesn't have a lengthy finish. Luckily there's no need to worry about that with this Caol Ila.
