Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold sheen and a warm, honey-tinged glow.
Nose
Rich, sherried aromas of dried fruits, fig and raisin, nest in polished oak, with orange zest and almond lending brightness. Cocoa and leather emerge subtly, while spice threads through a warm, aged Highlands perfume that hints at quiet, enduring elegance.
Palate
Silky and balanced, the palate opens with orchard fruits—apple and pear—brightened by citrus zest. Creamy vanilla and barley sugar mingle with soft oak, while whispers of spice—nutmeg and white pepper—thread through the mid-palate. Subtle dried-fruit notes deepen the sweetness, finishing clean, lightly nutty and elegantly persistent.
Finish
Elegant and long, the finish reveals delicate malt sweetness with subtle orchard fruit, a whisper of oak spice and a warm, refined fade that lingers gracefully on the palate.
