Lochside 1965

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Adelphi

ABV: 52.3%

Score: 95 Points

The nose is rich and rum-like with dried fruits, brown sugar, burnt vanilla, dates, and a hint of orange peel. The taste is thick, rich, and oily with orange peel and hints of ginger, almonds, and nutmeg. The finish is very long with almonds, brown sugar, and a hint of orange peel. Outstanding!  (February, 2013)
