Amber Room Review

Drunken Master Whiskyfest Glen Garioch 1986 2026 39 Years Old 40% Cask 1824

Nose

Floral, fragnant, beautiful fresh fruity nose

Body

Nice full body for a 40% dram, slightly soapy but not as much nor as overwhelming as 80s Bowmore; the body is not as complex as you would expect from a whisky that's basically 40 years old

Finish

Long finish
