Lochside (silent) Connoisseurs Choice Single Malt Scotch Whisky Miniature 1965 Vintage

Colour

Rich amber with a copper-gold glow.

Nose

Dark, sherried perfume of plum and raisin, crowned with orange zest and toasted almond. Rich vanilla and cocoa nib weave through polished oak, while cinnamon and clove spark a quiet spice. A whisper of leather and wax adds old-cask gravitas, all wrapped in a velvety fruit sweetness.

Palate

Silky, sherried fruit coats the palate with dark plum, fig and raisin, plus cocoa and toasted almond. Orange zest and toffee weave through spice, underpinned by supple oak. A warm, velvety finish lingers long, carrying caramelized sweetness and subtle nuttiness.

Finish

Long and refined, the finish unfurls with dried fruit and orange peel, a whisper of spice and soft oak. Vanilla and cocoa drift in, leaving a velvety warmth that lingers gracefully.
