Glen Ord Cadenhead's Small Batch Single Malt Scotch Whisky 13 Year Old · 2006 Vintage

Colour

Warm golden-amber with burnished copper highlights and a touch of mahogany at the rim.

Nose

Sherry-kissed and richly fruit-driven, the nose blooms with dried cherries, figs and raisins, balanced by dark chocolate, toffee and roasted almond. Orange zest and vanilla thread through polished oak, releasing a warm, resinous spice that hints at a decadent Highlands dram.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, this Glen Ord reveals rich sherry notes of fig, raisin, and orange zest, bound with dark cocoa, roasted almond, and baking spice. Plush fruit folds into toffee and a hint of coffee, while velvety oak supports a warming, peppery finish that lingers with sweet spice and cacao.

Finish

Long, elegant finish of rich sherry, dark plum and raisin, with warm spice and toasted oak. Cocoa and coffee notes linger as a gentle bitterness coats the tongue, giving a refined, nutty dryness that persists with a final whisper of orange zest.
