Whyte and Mackay Ltd, 45 YO Dalmore Single Highland Malt

The aroma is of an old steam train pulling away from a vintage wooden platform, with the waft of new wool in the air and oak from old vintage travel trunks. The palate gives the warmth of an open fire in a Mayfair hotel room, as the sunshine warms the wood paneling and a cigar is lit in the corner. The finish is the decent down an oak staircase in a country manor to the warm summer afternoon, with jam sandwiches and black tea being served.
