Lochside (silent) SMWS Society Cask No. 92.6 Whisky 32 Year Old · 1966 Vintage

Colour

Deep molten amber with copper-gold sheen and a mahogany edge, a sherry-warmed glow that speaks of age and quiet richness.

Nose

Opulent sherry-driven nose: dark fig and raisin, plum glaze, and orange zest entwined with rich toffee and polished oak. Cocoa, leather and spice—cinnamon and clove—emerge with velvety sweetness, hinting at a formidable, dignified cask that promises depth and luxurious complexity.

Palate

Opulent and full-bodied, this single-cask Lochside seduces with dense sherry sweetness tempered by a blistering ABV. Raisin, fig and blackberry coalesce with dark chocolate, espresso and baking spice. Silky, chewy texture carries refined oak tannins, finishing long and warming with lingering dried-fruit and spice.

Finish

An opulent, long finish that coats the palate with dark fruit and spice. Dried fig and raisin mingle with cacao and toasted almond, while sherry sweetness threads through the middle, fading to warm cedar, leather and tobacco. A rich, resinous tail lingers, slow and luxurious, with a steadfast, warming echo that refuses to hurry away.
