Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with sunlit copper highlights and a warm, honeyed glow.
Nose
Polished and inviting, this nose opens with orchard fruits—apple and pear—lifted by honeyed malt and vanilla. A subtle sherry sweetness brings dried citrus and almonds, while waxy malt and a whisper of spice frame the aroma. At cask strength, the scent is vivid yet elegant, promising a long, refined Speyside journey.
Palate
Full-bodied and plush, this Glenburgie coats the palate with honeyed orchard fruits—apricot and pear—plus vanilla and almond. Sherry adds dried fig and raisin, a cocoa-tinged core, and warming spice (nutmeg, clove). Long finish with toasted oak and a kiss of dryness.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish with a warm, oak-driven fade. Creamy malt sweetness lingers beneath layers of dried fruit, toffee and cocoa, brightened by subtle orange zest. Spicy wisps—cinnamon and white pepper—drift in as the sherry influence deepens, leaving a resinous, honeyed echo that slowly tapers to a refined, elegant oak sweetness.
