Inverleven (silent) Cask Strength Whisky 36 Year Old · 1973 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber-gold with a sunlit copper glow and a mahogany edge.

Nose

Opulent, sherry-kissed and serene, the nose offers dried fig and prune with bright orange zest, layered over toasted oak, vanilla and toffee. Cocoa nibs unfold with cinnamon and nutmeg, while a refined sherry sweetness lingers, giving a warm, mature invitation from this cask-strength Inverleven.

Palate

On the palate it is full and opulent, yet refined. Silky, creamy textures carry ripe orchard fruit—pear and apple—with honey, vanilla custard, and a touch of toffee. Spices unfold softly—cinnamon, nutmeg, a whisper of clove—beneath polished oak. At cask strength, warmth is integrated, delivering a long, elegant finish with fruit, almond, and subtle spice lingering.

Finish

Opulent and long, the finish coats the palate with sherry-glazed fruit, then unfolds cocoa, espresso spice, and refined oak. Velvety warmth lingers, with hints of almond and orange zest, tapering to a delicate, resinous sweetness.
