Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep burnished amber with coppery highlights and a touch of mahogany in the depths.
Nose
Rich, honeyed malt with orchard fruit greets the nose, lifted by gentle sherry sweetness. Dried apricot and raisin deepen the aroma, balanced by vanilla, toffee, and a touch of oak. A soft spice and almond undertone lingers, inviting further exploration.
Palate
Silky malt with understated sherry influence; dried fig, raisin and orange zest mingle with vanilla and almond. Spices weave through toffee and oak for a smooth, medium-bodied palate at 40%, finishing with a warm, lingering glow.
Finish
Luxuriously long and warm, this Balmenach closes with a sherry-kissed finish that clings with dried fig, raisin and orange zest, mingling with dark chocolate and toasted almond. Cinnamon and clove spice weave through the tail, while a refined oak sweetness lingers gracefully.
