C: Celar yellow.

N: fresh fruit, citrus, malty, lot's flower, ginger, grassy.

P: Light body, medium short finish, quite clear house style. strong.

C: 85 points. a young but nice version, bright and powerful. 應該是跟Lazy上山開的酒吧? 很棒的花香, 明亮而有力.

P: Medium body, medium finish. powerful, quite nice finish. old. 

C: 90 points. 這支酒開瓶一段時間後真的有變好, 相當不錯的老Balvenie. 應該找時間來辦一場百富了!

Balvenie 43yo 1964 (41.3%, OB, C#10378, 151 bts., exclusive for Hong Kong Duty Free)

C: Yellow

N: Very rich and intense flower. vanilla honey, malty, creaming apple, roasted nut. light peat, light flower.

P: Light body short finish. weak. over aged.

C: 87 points. 感謝Alice, 拿到了一個很棒原廠包裝3ml sample, 雖然數量過少而且有點懷疑這個sample有點過度氧化, 但是由於我應該不可能去買這隻四十幾萬台幣的酒(比Cask 191還貴), 只能說祝福我們中國的朋友, 希望他們喜歡.

P: Medium hevy body, rich palate, long finish, very enjoyable. somewhat gun powder in palate.

C: 91 points. a grat dram! 應該很多人都喝過了, 希望大家喜歡我的酒.
