Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with burnished copper hues and a honey-golden glow.
Nose
Opulent sherried perfume of dried plum, fig and raisin, brightened by orange zest and candied apple. Cocoa nibs, toffee and vanilla melt into polished oak, while cinnamon and nutmeg thread through hints of tobacco and leather. A lush, dessert-like aroma that hints at the refined balance of Glen Elgin’s elegance and Port Dundas’ grain sweetness.
Palate
Silky and richly sherried, this Double Single coats the palate with fig and raisin sweetness, cocoa and espresso, tempered by vanilla and toffee. Grain and malt mingle with warm spice—cinnamon and clove—and a bright orange zest note. Full, velvety texture at 53.3% ABV, delivering a long, oak-kissed finish with roasted hints.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish with sherried sweetness—raisin and fig interwoven with orange zest—over toasted oak. Velvet spices linger, while dark chocolate and espresso notes fade to a warm, persistent glow.
