Port Dundas 1988 27 Year (Douglas Laing)

I like oddities, drams that are out of the ordinary, different or even strange. The nose of this single grain is a bit unusual to say the least, I get effervescent tablets, raspberry powder and bee sting cake. Notes of baking spices, cereals and distant wood smoke evolve. Honeyed and peppery in the arrival, the palate develops with green walnuts, blueberries and charred oak. It turns aromatic, herbal and almost peaty. Mild citrus fruits, floral vanilla and a touch of coffee linger in the grassy finish. This Port Dundas is full of surprises, unveiling a singular flavor profile.
