Featured in The 1001 Whiskies you must try before you die book
"This whisky is a curious and very pleasant mix of light, almost floral cereal, cut with toasted pine nuts and fine tobacco. The distillery's signature twist of lemon is now a darker marmalade and there is a very addictive peppery rumble at the end"
If you are an Auchentoshan fan then this 18 year old expression is worthy of the extra cost as you get so much more complexity and depth. In fact it's a bit of a revelation!

Tasting Notes
Colour
Pale gold with warm honey undertones and a soft, sunlit amber glow.
Nose
Delicate, almost floral cereal opens the nose, rolled in vanilla and bright citrus. Nutty notes of flaked almond and toasted pine nut mingle with green tea and a whisper of spice. A lemon marmalade lift adds brightness, while faint tobacco suggests depth—an elegant Lowland aromatic profile that promises refinement.
Palate
Silky and gently creamy on the palate, with vanilla sweetness and bright citrus zest threading through almond and green tea. A light spice lingers, delivering a peppery ribbon that broadens into a long, refined finish with hints of marmalade lemon and toasted oak.
Finish
Peppery, long finish with citrus marmalade from the lemon twist, backed by warm vanilla and toasted almond. Subtle green tea and tobacco linger, while a final dash of spice and white pepper leaves a confident, lingering glow.
