Glen Flagler (silent) Limited Edition Cask Strength Whisky 29 Year Old · 1973 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber-gold with coppery highlights and a mahogany undertone.

Nose

Rich, toasty oak and silky vanilla frame a lush sherry orchard of dried fig, raisin and plum. Subtle treacle and toffee mingle with roasted almond, orange zest, and a whisper of cocoa. Leather and old furniture polish lend depth, while spice-kissed air hints at clove and cinnamon. A robust, aromatic prelude to a majestic, cask-strength voyage.

Palate

Silky, full-bodied on the palate with a resinous, chewy texture. Dark sherry influence envelops ripe raisin, fig, and orange peel, tempered by almonds and toffee. A subtle malt sweetness weaves with toasted oak and a whisper of spice, delivering a balanced, long, lingering finish that fades to cocoa and dried fruit.

Finish

An expansive, velvety finish clings with warmth and spice, as dried fig and raisin unfold into cocoa, leather and toasted oak; sherry lingers, gradually drying to a refined, nutty, dry finish.
