Tasting Notes

Colour

Deep amber with rich copper highlights and a touch of mahogany at the edges.

Nose

Sherry-cask perfume dominates with raisin and fig soak, mingling orange zest, dark chocolate, and toasted almond. Underneath, vanilla and toffee drift through toasted oak, with a gentle spice of cinnamon and clove. An elegant, velvety sweetness hints at age and refinement.

Palate

Silky and rich on the palate, this old Bell’s unfurls sherried depth with a lush sweetness. Dried fig and raisin fuse with toffee, vanilla and toasted almond, while subtle oak lends gentle spice. The 40% frame keeps it elegant, delivering a refined, resinous warmth that lingers with cocoa, fruitcake and a delicate smokiness.

Finish

Long, warming finish with sherried sweetness lingering over oak and spice; dried fig and raisin mingle with cocoa, leather and toasted almond, fading to a soft caramel warmth.

Bell's
Bell’s traces its roots to Arthur Bell, a Perth wine and spirits merchant who began vatting malt whiskies together in 1851 to create a more consistent blended Scotch. The “Extra Special” trademark was registered in 1895 and later appeared with the Bell’s name in 1904, becoming the basis of the long-running Bell’s blend. Blair Athol, founded in 1798, became closely tied to the brand after Arthur Bell & Sons acquired the distillery in 1933.
