Tasting Notes
Convalmore 32 Year Old 1984 is a true gem, a whisky that encapsulates the essence of time and craft. Pouring a deep amber hue, the nose tantalizes with a delightful blend of candied sweetness, reminiscent of Dolly Mix and Jelly Tots, harmoniously balanced with floral notes and hints of barley sugar, tangerine, apple, and cedar. The palate unfolds with a velvety softness, revealing layers of oak and spice, complemented by subtle notes of orange and tomato stem. As water is added, the texture transforms, unveiling a captivating intensity of herbal nuances that remind us why Convalmore is a prized jewel within Diageo's portfolio. The finish lingers with gentle oak, birch sap, and oatcakes, accompanied by a delightful touch of biscuits, including the beloved Hobnobs. This exceptional 32-year-old whisky, aged in refill American oak hogsheads and bottled at a natural cask strength of 48.2%, is a testament to the art of whisky-making, with only 3,972 bottles released, making it a true collector's item.
