Loch Lomond Single Malt Scotch Whisky 23 Year Old · 1974 Vintage

Colour

Deep, burnished amber with copper-gold highlights and a touch of mahogany at the rim.

Nose

Opulent sherry nose, full of dark plum, raisin and fig, kissed by orange zest. Rich toffee and cocoa mingle with leather, tobacco, and polished oak. Spices—nutmeg and clove—add warmth, while a soft vanilla halo lingers.

Palate

Sherry-cask richness coats the palate with velvety dark fruit—fig, plum and cherry—woven with almond, cocoa and caramel. Spice notes of cinnamon and clove emerge, supported by toasted oak and a honeyed sweetness. Silky mouthfeel leads to a long, refined finish that fades with nutty warmth.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish with sherry-tinged fruit—plum and fig—layered with cocoa, toasted almond and a nuanced spice. Oak and orange zest whisper through, leaving a warm, polished glow that slowly fades to a refined, velvety dryness.
