Imperial (silent) Connoisseurs Choice Single Malt Scotch Whisky Miniature 1970 Vintage

Colour

Rich amber with copper-bronze edges.

Nose

Silken and contemplative, this nose opens with orchard fruit, ripe pear and apple, notes of mead honey and almond paste. Subtle vanilla warmth unfolds into toffee, dried apricot, and a whisper of sherry, then a faint leather and oak lift, finishing with spice and a refined, old world polish.

Palate

Silky, softly sherried, it coats the palate with dark fruit—dates, fig and raisin—married to walnut and cocoa. A hint of orange zest and gentle spice threads through the mid-palate, while quiet oak lends subtle tannin. The finish is warm and refined, lingering with nutty sweetness and a final kiss of spice.

Finish

Long and refined, the finish unfurls with soft orchard fruit, toasted oak and a whisper of spice, a subtle sweetness lingering to create a warm, dignified echo on the palate.
