Ballechin #2 Madeira Cask Matured Single Malt Scotch Whisky 5 Year Old

Colour

Deep copper-amber with mahogany undertones and a sunlit, honey-gold glow.

Nose

Smoky peat opens the nose, lushly braided with Madeira’s rich sweetness: raisin, fig, date, and orange marmalade weave through caramelized sugar and vanilla oak. A whisper of cocoa and leather anchors the aroma, with a subtle saline hint from the cask.

Palate

Powerful peat opens with smoky, medicinal notes, then Madeira-driven sweetness threads through. Dried fig, raisin and date mingle with orange zest, cocoa and toffee, while spice—nutmeg and clove—adds lift. The peat remains buoyant yet refined, delivering a velvety mouthfeel that coats the palate and lingers with warm ember and a chocolatey finish.

Finish

Long, smoky finish with Madeira-adjacent sweetness lingering on the palate. Dried fig and raisin deepen into cocoa and toffee, while vanilla and toasted oak drift in, leaving a warm, spicy ember that slowly fades to a refined, lingering glow.
