Independent Bottlers

D. Laing, Millburn,  36y, distilled 1969, 50% ABV

Typical cost of this bottle; €€€€

Old Malt Cask (the photo is a typical OMC presentation and not this Millburn)

Nose: Fresh apple crumble on a bed of floral hay with just a touch of perfume

Palate: That apple crumble in the nose makes an immediate appearance, but is rapidly joined by spicy pears and vanilla sauce. There is almost a hint of cinnamon in the mix too.

Finish: Very long.

Overall Impression: Thoroughly enjoyable, I like this!
