Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold glow and a mahogany edge.
Nose
Opulent, antique nose: polished oak and aged sherry, with bronze warmth. Dried figs, dates, and raisins mingle with orange zest, vanilla, and almond paste. A gentle kiss of cinnamon and nutmeg drifts over dark chocolate, toffee, and a whisper of leather. Refined, poised, and instantly alluring—a library after midnight.
Palate
Silky and expansive, this Speyside glides across the palate with sherry-softened fig and raisin, woven with cocoa, toasted oak and walnut. Subtle spice—cinnamon, clove—lifts orange zest and pear, while a creamy, refined sweetness lingers into a long, warm finish.
Finish
Long, opulent finish with dried fig and raisin, whispers of dark chocolate and toasted almond, and a glaze of orange zest. Sherry-cask richness endures, melting into refined oak and spice, leaving a velvety warmth that lingers gracefully on the palate.
