Mina kommentarer:
En bra lot på McTears med Old Elgin 8, Old Elgin 15 och Scapa 8. Troligen buteljerade på 70-talet elller 80-talet. Min poäng: ?? p

Tasting notes från whiskyfun: Officiella tasting notes:

Old Elgin 8 yo (40%, Gordon & MacPhail, vatted malt, 1980s)
Colour: gold/orangey. Nose: rather simple, malty, a tad cardboardy. Not very expressive but not ‘repulsive’ either. Only rather average… Gets a tad more orangey after a moment, also more on cereals, cornflakes, milk chocolate. Still not big, that is. Mouth: better now, quite nervous, orangey (squash) and malty, with also quite some white chocolate. Apple juice. So much nicer than on the nose! Finish: unexpectedly long, citrusy.
Comments: eminently quaffable – and no need to nose it!
SGP:431 – 80 points.
