A wealth of complex aromas including sweetened green tea, heather ales, flower honey, sweetened porridge, sandalwood, gorse flower, brittle waxes, pollens and wax jacket grease. The epitome of refined maturity and beauty in malt whisky. With a little water we got more pollens, chamomile, wildflowers, tea tree oil, hessians and bitter citrus piths as well as precious hardwoods, like the inside of a freshly made acoustic guitar. The palate bloomed initially with dried flowers and rich spices, things like hot cross buns, smoked white pepper, camphor and nutmeg. Then with water, citronella wax, ancient herbal liqueurs, stout beers, hardwood resins, miso broth and verbena. An endless and spellbinding vortex of complexity keeps you perpetually transfixed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCask: Refill barrel\u003cbr\u003e Age: 31 years\u003cbr\u003e Date distilled: June 1989\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlcohol: 50.3%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUSA allocation: 48 bottles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eAbout Cask No. 70.44 The loom of time:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDistillery 70 is one of the oldest in Scotland and has long been a destination for the serious whisky enthusiast. The care taken to craft exceptionally complex spirit shows in the approach - create a rich and meaty style of make through short fermentation and distillation in shorter stills, then patiently age for several years. With time, this rich and meaty veil lifts to reveal delicate fruits, gentle sweetness and pleasing spice, resulting in the harmony achieved with Cask No. 70.44. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAfter 31 years in a refill ex-bourbon barrel, Cask No. 70.44 offers itself as a hallmark example of the textural richness and depth of character achieved through extensive aging.
