Grant's 25yo

(I'm writing in English since I share this with Grant's)
Glass: Libbey tasting glass. Thick, fat tears and legs
Color: Brown
Nose: Malty, fruity (appels), candy-sweetness, wood, bourbon (vanilla)
Taste: Vanilla / bourbon, candy sweetness again, really soft, smooth, easy to drink
Finish: I think I recognize a really small trace of smoke. Really subtle. Creamy, sweet like candies, slightly bitter.
I think I like prefer the 18yo. In fact it not comparable, since the 18yo has a finish. This 25yo is an easy to drink whisky. A liquid candy store. And an old one, so there's some charm and think about that when you drink it! 25 - i.e. twenty-five - years old!
