Edradour Straight From The Cask - Cote De Provence Finish Whisky 10 Year Old · 1996 Vintage

Colour

Golden amber with a warm copper glow and a subtle rose-hued depth.

Nose

Opulent and sun-warmed on the nose, vanilla and honeyed oak mingle with ripe peach and apricot. Almond and citrus zest drift alongside a delicate thread of Provence lavender and thyme, while a respectful spice note lends energy. The aroma is lush, composed, and inviting, hinting at the cask's Provencal influence without sacrificing elegance.

Palate

Powerful and opulent on the palate, this 59.8% bottling pours with a velvety heft. Flashes of crimson berry and citrus zest entwine with warm vanilla and almond sweetness. The Cote de Provence finish introduces sun-kissed peach, apricot, and subtle rosé-like fruit, complemented by delicate spice and toasted oak. A refined, full-bodied profile with a long, slightly fruity finish, balanced by tannic warmth and a whisper of Mediterranean herbs.

Finish

Silky and enduring, the finish unfurls with sun-kissed apricot and peach, brightened by citrus zest and a whisper of Provençal florals. Almond, vanilla and a gentle oak spice linger, tapering to a warm, refined dry finish.
