Glenfiddich 18 Year Old

On ice, Puerta América Hotel, Madrid (on the house, thanks.) It pours pale wheatish, oily streaks. Aroma is intense: mainly smoke and rolling tobacco. So this is what you may (somewhat pompously) call a masculine whisky. Whatever. Mouthfeel is quite soft and velvety despite the evident alcohol boost, thanks to the oleous texture it displays from the beginning. Umami flavor is quite evident, which allows it to be paired with some not-so-common foods, such as oysters (did it myself.) Bitterish, warm, medium to long-lasting finish.
