Nose
Gently sweet. Oily cereal character. A fresh day on Speyside, with a little smoke wafting past.
Palate
Chocolate cream in a cookie sandwich. Becoming less chocolatey, more biscuity and drier.
Finish
Fruity. Lemon pith. Slightly woody. Alcoholic. Warming. Long. Powerful.
Comment
The second good Convalmore I have tasted. It was not highly rated in its lifetime, but could win friends now.

Nose
Gentle and perfumed with good complexity. Raffia, planed wood, florist shop, fennel. Merest touch of smoke.
Palate
Spring-like freshness. Floral with good balance. Light vanilla notes, peaches. Elegant.
Finish
Becomes firm and oaky.
Comment
Holds itself back a little, but delicious.
