Bladnoch Connoisseurs Choice Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old · 1988 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and coppery highlights.

Nose

Sherry-kissed nose with dark plum and raisin, framed by caramel oak. Dried fig, cocoa and almond intertwine with orange zest, vanilla and a whisper of leather and spice, delivering a warm, elegant sweetness that hints at the complexity to come.

Palate

Silky and refined on the palate, sherry-cask richness carries dark fig and raisin, brightened by orange zest and treacle. Subtle spice—clove and cinnamon—sits with polished oak, guiding a warm, cocoa-dusted finish.

Finish

Long, refined finish that coats the palate with velvet sherry sweetness. Dried fig and walnut mingle with cocoa and discreet spice, while orange zest adds bright lift. The oak softened by time drifts into a warm, lingering afterglow of tobacco and caramel, fading gracefully.
