Balmenach Finest Collection Whisky Miniature 25 Year Old · 1972 Vintage

Colour

Deep burnished amber with copper-gold highlights and a hint of mahogany

Nose

Opulent sherry nose of dark raisin, fig and prune, mingling with burnt sugar, cocoa and toffee. Hints of orange peel, cinnamon and clove weave through polished oak, with a whisper of leather. An aged, fragrant bouquet that promises depth and a long, elegant finish.

Palate

Silky and richly textured, this Balmenach coats the palate with fruitcake and dark fig, mingling with cocoa, espresso and orange zest. Sherry-derived sweetness threads through toasted oak and vanilla, while spice—nutmeg and cinnamon—lends warmth and depth. The finish is long and elegant, with tobacco, leather and a soft balsamic nuance lingering.

Finish

An enduring, sherried finish that lingers with velvet warmth. Rich dried fruits, raisins and orange zest give way to toasted oak, cocoa and a gentle spice, leaving a refined, tobacco-tinged warmth on the palate.
