Auchentoshan Pure Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old

Colour

Bright golden amber with a delicate honey glow.

Nose

Vintage 1980s Auchentoshan, a Lowland treated to sherry-cask character. Fresh citrus and green apple lead the nose, opening to dried fig, almond, and soft toffee, with vanilla and a gentle oak lift. Elegant, airy and subtly sweet, the aroma hints at nutty cocoa and a refined sherried depth, befitting this rare bottling.

Palate

Silky and light on the palate, this Auchentoshan unfolds citrus zest, green apple and delicate honeyed malt. Subtle vanilla coats the tongue, with faint almond and a whisper of sherry—dried fruits and cocoa emerging as the oak softens. The finish is refined and long, a gentle warmth and silky sweetness lingering with quiet elegance.

Finish

Silky and refined, the finish lingers with vanilla and soft toffee, gradually unveiling delicate dried fruits and a kiss of sherry. Nutty almond, subtle spice, and gentle oak stay long on the palate, leaving a warm, lingering glow that invites the next sip.
