Dimple The Nelson Ship's Royal Decanter Whisky 12 Year Old

Colour

Rich amber-gold with warm copper undertones and a honey-bronze glow.

Nose

Sherry-driven sweetness floods the nose with dark fig and raisin, glazed in toffee and caramel. Dried orchard fruits rise with toasted almond and vanilla, while softly seasoned oak and a trace of chocolate lend depth and elegance.

Palate

Silky and medium-bodied on the palate, with a lush, slightly waxy mouthfeel. Caramelized toffee leads into rich dried fruit—raisin, fig, and plum—with dark chocolate and orange zest. Almond and walnut notes add a nutty depth, while sherry-cask influence brings sweetness and spice. Subtle oak, gentle pepper, and a long, warming finish.

Finish

Long, velvety and gently resinous, the finish pours warmth with sherry-rich sweetness and dark fruit over toasted oak. Nutty almond, cocoa and spice linger, carried by a refined, lasting warmth that echoes the decanter’s regal provenance.
