1975  Millburn Limited Edition 25 Year Old 61.9% Abv Rare Malts

Millburn 25 yo 1975/2001 (61.9%, Rare Malts)

Colour;: Straw. 

Nose: Smoky, meaty and grassy, with notes of mustard seeds, ham, wet chalk… Truly wild. Not pungent despite the high alcohol but let’s try it with water (at roughly 45%): we have more wax now, fir honey, vanilla pods, pollen… 

Mouth (neat): Punchy and much fruitier, on canned pineapples, oranges and a slight waxiness. With water: even sweeter but also spicier, with more tannins but also quite some salt and those mustardy notes. 

Finish: Long, peppery and spicy finish, with less sweetness but a little resin now… The whole is quite ‘natural’, a good example of most Rare Malts’ style.
