Glen Albyn 1963 G&M Connoisseurs Choice 40% Old Brown Label

Nose: Buttered toast and marmalade at an outside table in the highlands on an autumn day. Just lovely.
Palate: Very spicy and tannic. There is orange, but it's submerged beneath the weight of the oak.
Finish: The spices keep increasing until it bursts into flames on your tongue.
Comment: Too woody. The nose is a treat, but it's all downhill from there.
