Hazelburn Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky 8 Year Old · 2003 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery hues and a warm honey-gold glow.

Nose

Opulent, sherry-kissed nose with bold cask-strength presence. Rich toffee and vanilla swirl with honeyed malt and ripe orchard fruit. Dark fruits—raisin and fig—rise with orange zest, cocoa and almond, while spice notes of cinnamon drift through. A faint maritime breeze lingers, hinting at Campbeltown character.

Palate

Silky and opulent, this opens with toffee and vanilla, brightened by apricot and orange zest. Hazelnut, oak and sherry-cask richness weave with dark fruit—plum and raisin—and a hint of chocolate. Full-bodied, warmly spiced, it lingers with a long, cask-strength finish.

Finish

An enduring, velvet finish of toasted nuts, dried fig and orange zest, carried by sherry sweetness. Spices unfurl slowly, with cocoa and oak lingering, finishing in a warm, resinous glow.
