Blair Athol Cadenhead's Authentic Collection Single Malt Scotch Whisky 14 Year Old · 1999 Vintage

Colour

Deep burnished amber with a mahogany undertone and coppery glints.

Nose

An opulent sherried nose of dark plum and raisin, with dried fig and orange zest, layered with toffee, espresso and dark chocolate. Toasted oak, vanilla and a hint of leather add depth and spice.

Palate

Opulent and full-bodied, this palate unfolds with rich dried fruits—raisins and prunes—framed by sherry sweetness. Orange zest, dark chocolate and toasted walnut mingle with warm spices (cinnamon, clove) and a treacly toffee undercurrent. Velvety oak support leads to a long, peppery finish.

Finish

A luxurious, long finish that unfolds in layers of dried fruit and spice. Fig and raisin mingle with orange zest, cocoa nib, and toasted oak, while clove and cinnamon glow in the background. The sherry sweetness lingers, tapering to a warm, peppery fade that keeps you coming back for another sip.
