Serge Valentin (www.whiskyfun.com) beschreibt dieses Highlight wie folgt:

“Colour: dark amber. Nose: this one is much fruitier and much less on coffee and smoke. Hyper-big notes of dried figs and sultanas, dried longans and lychees, nougat, hot apricot pie, rosewater… Rather exuberant I’d say, and extremely raisiny. Maybe less elegant than the 1971 on the nose but it’s still great, great whisky, no doubt, the smoke making a late arrival. Mouth: thick, creamy and syrupy at the attack, heavily concentrated and extremely liquoricy this time. Even with a tiny sip it’s an invasion, such is this one’s concentration. Same dried fruits as on the nose (lychees first this time, then figs and dates), caramel fudge, Alexandra cocktail (some may say Bailey’s Irish Cream), coffee liqueur (oh well, let’s quote brand names while we’re at it: Kahlua or Tia Maria), something tarry, excellent rubber (believe me)… And plenty of other aromas. Finish: even longer than the 1971’s and more on fig liqueur this time. Well, I liked the 1971’s nose a little better but I prefer this palate. Both are stupendous whiskies anyway, worth the very same rating in my books. SGP:634 – 94 points.”
