Glenlivet Lonach Cask Strength Whisky 40 Year Old · 1970 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and a mahogany edge, glowing with honey-gold warmth.

Nose

Opulent sherry-soaked aromas envelop the senses: dried figs and raisins, orange peel, and treacle, layered with vanilla and toasted oak. Cocoa nibs and espresso mingle with a whisper of leather, while cinnamon and clove add a warming spice, finishing with poised, old-cask elegance.

Palate

Silky and measured on the palate, polished oak wraps around dried fruit, vanilla and caramel, with hints of almond and gentle spice. Concentrated and balanced, the flavors linger with citrus zest and a graceful, warm finish.

Finish

A long, luxurious finale of sherry-rich sweetness and refined oak. Dark cherry and fig linger on the palate, mingled with cocoa, toasted almond and a whisper of spice. The 40-year maturing lends warm, elegant tannins, fading to a silky orchard-fruit echo.
