Caledonian (Silent) SMWS Society Cask No. G3.3 Whisky 26 Year Old · 1986 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with copper-gold shimmer and a warm mahogany glow.

Nose

Opulent and complex, the nose opens with dark fruit and treacle, rising from nutty oak. Dried figs and raisins mingle with almond, toffee and a kiss of orange zest, while shadowy spices and cocoa drift over a lacquered, leather-soft base. A refined sherry glow lingers, inviting another breath.

Palate

Silky, full-bodied palate with rich sherry sweetness—dark raisins, fig, and orange zest—woven with cocoa and toasted almond. Spices build—cinnamon, clove, nutmeg—underpinned by polished oak. Warm and persistent, the finish delivers leather, dark chocolate, and a whisper of dried fruit.

Finish

An expansive, lingering finish of sherried sweetness that fades to polished oak. Dried fig and dark chocolate mingle with orange zest, while warm spices linger, cloaking the palate in velvety heat. The tail remains refined and long, drying to cocoa-dusted oak with a final whisper of tobacco and toasted almond.
