Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with honey-gold radiance and coppery edges, a warm, mahogany-tinted glow.
Nose
Opulent Muscat-driven bouquet: honeyed raisin and apricot mingle with candied orange, peach skin, and florals, lifted by a bright Muscat perfume. Beneath, Blair Athol’s malty backbone and subtle vanilla-spice provide warmth, creating a wine-kissed, richly perfumed nose that speaks to both sweetness and depth at high ABV.
Palate
Weighty, malty backbone supports a Moscatel-finished sweetness that lingers on the palate. Honeyed citrus, apricot and raisin mingle with almond, toffee and a touch of spice. The 51.4% ABV adds a velvety warmth, yielding a full, glossy texture and a long, wine-dark finish with citrus zest and subtle cocoa.
Finish
Warm Moscatel sweetness lingers, coating the palate with honeyed apricot, raisin and citrus zest. Blair Athol’s sturdy malt backbone anchors the finish, while the wine finish releases aromatic lift—floral notes, almond and a touch of spice. Long, creamy and slightly nutty, it fades to a clean, oak-toned warmth.
