Dumbarton (silent) Cadenhead's Single Grain Scotch Whisky Miniature 32 Year Old · 1962 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with a copper-gold sheen and a hint of mahogany.

Nose

Velvet vanilla and toffee rise from the glass, giving way to dried fig, raisin and prune from the sherry-influenced cask. Subtle orange zest, almond and cocoa nib weave through polished oak and a whisper of tobacco, with a delicate maritime brine. A warm, refined sweetness lingers.

Palate

Silky, creamy entry with vanilla and honey, opening to dried apricot and almond paste. Sherry influence adds raisin sweetness, orange zest and a hint of cocoa, backed by polished oak. The finish is long and warming, with gentle spice and a lingering, refined sweetness that coats the palate.

Finish

Long, elegant finish that warms the palate with toffee and vanilla, evolving into dried fruit and toasted oak. The grain sweetness lingers softly, carried by a delicate spice, fading to a refined oak-honey warmth that coats the senses with quiet sophistication.
