Top-tier old sherry notes, syrup, molasses, raisin, soy sauce, not so much tropical fruits, maybe well integrated, the nose is quite similar to a 72 Glendronach or a 60s dark Longmorn, almost no peat. More pencil peel and chalk after a breath,

The palate is rich, sweet and salty, bonfire smoke, more tropical fruits+top sherry here, green mango, seaweed, pickled olives, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, very sweet honey, dark chocolates, that’s why it’s a legend, Bowmore after 1966 ( maybe 67, cant miss that) seems to lose this sherry+peat DNA, camphor and aged pu-er tea.
-
Long tea finish, still sweet, a bit more peppery, metallic tools, camphor.
