Balmenach Miltonhaugh Whisky Miniature 28 Year Old · 1966 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and a coppery glow.

Nose

Sherry-drenched and richly aged, this Balmenach opens with polished oak, dried fig and plum, and a bright orange zest. Toffee and cocoa deepen the profile, while leather, tobacco and toasted almond add depth, with warm spice weaving through a long, opulent finish.

Palate

Powerful and opulent, this Balmenach coats the palate with warming, oily richness. Dried fruit and fig mingle with dark chocolate, toffee and orange zest, underpinned by sherry-spice—nutmeg, clove, vanilla oak. The 63.5% ABV drives a long, persistent finish of resinous oak, espresso and caramel.

Finish

Long, luxurious, and warming, this balances sherry‑rich sweetness with dried fig, raisin, and dark cocoa, threaded by toasted spice and polished oak. The finish lingers velvety and sweet, edged by a peppery warmth that slowly fades to espresso and refined wood.
