Glen Elgin Single Malts Of Scotland Single Cask #807781 Whisky 11 Year Old · 2009 Vintage

Colour

Deep golden amber with warm coppery glints.

Nose

Opulent, cask-strength nose with ripe orchard fruit—peach, pear, and apple—folded into vanilla custard, cream, and toffee. Subtle almond nuttiness, toasted oak, and gentle spice frame the aroma, while a whisper of dried fruit hints at indulgent depth and a warm, lingering finish.

Palate

Intense, full-bodied palate with a viscous mouthfeel and bold cask-strength warmth. Orchard fruit sweetness entwines with rich sherry—raisined apple, dried apricot, fig—plus vanilla, almond paste, and cocoa. Spices and toasted oak linger into a long, warming finish.

Finish

Long, warming finish with dried fruit and honey from sherry-influenced oak; cocoa, almond and orange zest notes linger, wrapped in spice. A resinous, velvety tail fades slowly, leaving a quiet, lingering sweetness.
