Glenesk (silent) Cadenhead's Single Malt Scotch Whisky Miniature 13 Year Old · 1982 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber-gold with coppery highlights and a touch of mahogany at the rim.

Nose

Opulent sherried bouquet of dried fig, prune and raisin, layered with dark chocolate, espresso and toasted almond. Vanilla-caramel oak, cinnamon and clove spice mingle with a whisper of orange zest, elevating the fruit-forward richness. At 66.5% ABV, the aroma remains vibrant, resinous, and invitingly powerful.

Palate

Powerful and viscous, this high-octane Highland malt coats the mouth with dense malt, dark fruit and toffee. Rich notes of prune and fig mingle with baking spice; oak and a wisp of cocoa emerge as the heat slowly wanes, leaving a long, warming finish.

Finish

Long, warming finish of peppery spice and dark dried fruit, enrobed in rich oak. At 66.5% ABV the heat lingers, revealing subtle sherry-inflected depths and a final, resinous sweetness that coats the palate.
