Mini-review: How on earth did the angels miss this one?

SMWS G1.15 'Could pacify a mob' - North British 25yo Single Grain 63.9% sample from @SpiritAndWood

In the glass: Mid gold, fast thin legs.

Nose: Dunnage warehouse, nutty vanilla, hint of smoke.

Palate: ABV hits you straight away, huge spice notes, slight bitter notes - dark chocolate / sour cherries. Very drying. Develops some fruit and heather notes.

Finish: Long with quite a bitter / sour finish - not at all unpleasant.

Comments: Lovely dram, but how on earth did the angels miss this one - 63.9% after 25 years???
