[QUOTE="Kapnismologist, post: 33646, member: 487"] Nicely put, and very interesting indeed. It seems that there is certainly something to be said when a 20-year old tin of Nightcap emerges in the bowl like that. I have never enjoyed it in such a vintage (that I know of) but would of course jump at the chance to do so should it ever come along. Certainly, the general wisdom does seem to be that latakia-dominant blends don’t always age well (as say, a sugar-laden virginia), but then again I suppose it all depends on what you are looking for. I for one enjoy the edges of a young 965 and, in the case of Nightcap, the spice which always seems to float atop its famously robust and complex melodies (to continue with the music simile). It sounds like that is lost after a time (which is, of course, not all that bad - just different). Cheers. [/QUOTE]
