Arran Douglas Laing - Single Cask #12357 Whisky Miniature 21 Year Old · 1996 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with copper-gold sheen and mahogany undertones.

Nose

Brisk coastal air and lemon zest open to honeyed orchard fruit, vanilla and toasted almond. A subtle sherry note emerges—raisins, fig and cocoa—coating warm oak with elegant spice and age.

Palate

Silky, full-bodied palate with pronounced sherry influence: raisins, fig, and dark chocolate weave through roasted malt. Orange zest, toffee and a touch of maple syrup brighten the profile, while cinnamon and clove spices add warmth. Velvet, oily mouthfeel supports a long, refined finish of oak, caramel, and lingering dried-fruit sweetness.

Finish

Long, elegant and sherry-kissed, the finish lingers with dried fig and raisin, wrapped in dark cocoa and toasted almond. Orange zest and gentle spice weave through the oak, with a coastal kiss of salt that fades to a refined, warming finale.
