Glenlochy (silent) SMWS Society Cask No. 62.5 Whisky 15 Year Old · 1979 Vintage

Colour

Damp straw gold, a pale, sunlit hue with a whisper of honey.

Nose

An evocative, rustic nose of damp straw and leather forms the groundwork, brightened by soft fruits—pear and orchard apple—gentle sweetness trailing with a whisper of oak.

Palate

Silky and weighty on the palate, where damp straw and leather form a savory backbone, tempered by soft fruit sweetness. Rich, mouth-coating and warming from the high ABV, it leads to a long, refined finish with echoes of leather and fruit.

Finish

Long, refined finish of damp straw and leather, with delicate soft-fruit notes lingering. The 61% ABV lends a warming, subtle spice that threads through the final moment, fading to a quiet, leathery echo.
