Avonside Fine Old Scotch Whisky 8 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and a warm mahogany glow.

Nose

Opulent nose of rich dried fruit (raisin, fig, and sultana) lifted by sherry and oak. Caramelized vanilla, orange zest and almond mingle with dark chocolate and a touch of toasted spice, while subtle oak rounds out the bouquet with warm, inviting depth.

Palate

Silky and medium-full, this delivers a rich profile of dried fruit—figs, raisins and orange zest—layered with toffee and toasted oak. Sherry cask influence brings cocoa nibs, burnt sugar and a warm spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—through the mid-palate. The finish is long and comforting, with faded sweetness, hints of cocoa, and a soft, leathery toast.

Finish

Long and elegant, the finish lingers with sherry-soft sweetness, mingling with toasted oak. Raisins and fig unfold into cocoa and spice, tapering to a suave leather-tobacco echo that leaves a warm, refined glow.
