Bladnoch Single Sherry Cask #2618 Whisky 19 Year Old · 1992 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and coppery highlights; a burnished gold glow that flashes ruby at the rim.

Nose

Opulent sherry envelops the glass: sun-warmed fig and raisin blend with orange zest and ripe plum, lifted by cinnamon, clove and nutmeg. Dark cocoa and toffee fuse with toasted oak, while whispers of leather and tobacco add depth. A velvety, decadent nose that speaks of a long, well-integrated sherry maturation.

Palate

Opulent sherry-driven palate with a velvety, full-bodied mouthfeel. Raisin, prune and fig unfold over dark chocolate and orange zest, while toffee and cocoa nibs mingle with warming spices—clove, cinnamon and nutmeg. At 55% ABV, the warmth lingers into a long finish of leather, espresso and dried fruits, deftly threaded with supple oak.

Finish

Long, richly sherried finish; dark fig, orange zest and cocoa linger, with espresso hints. Warming spice and polished oak support a silky sweetness that recedes into a refined, cocoa-dusted warmth.
