Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky Distillery Bottling 75cl / 40%
A wonderful old 1980s bottle of Balvenie 10-year-old Founder's Reserve in the short-lived cognac-style bottle used in this era.
These 10-year-old Balvenies from the 1980s vary from batch to batch but generally speaking they're delicious - honeyed sweetness as you'd expect from Balvenie, but also a slightly dirtier, oilier more complex style that is nowadays very uncommon not just from Balvenie but the majority of modern Speyside whiskies, which is a bit of a pity for those of us that really enjoy this old school style.

Complex with subtle dried citrus, raisins as I would usually like in a sherry cask but something (the smoke, grape skins ? from the sherry cask?) unwelcome reminds me of grappa.
