Long John Macdonald Special Reserve Blended Scotch Whisky

Colour

Rich amber with burnished copper highlights and a honey-gold core.

Nose

Rich, inviting aroma of dried fig and raisin, toasted almond and creamy toffee, with sherried sweetness and vanilla. Subtle mocha and dark chocolate mingle with toasted oak, while whispers of nutmeg and clove add a poised spice, finishing with a warm, elegant bouquet.

Palate

Silky and refined on the palate, this Special Reserve coats the mouth with warm sherry sweetness and toasted oak. Dried fruit notes—raisin, fig, date—layer with creamy toffee, almond, and orange zest. Cocoa and dark chocolate add depth, while ginger and clove lend subtle spice. The finish is long and velvety, with persistent warmth, a touch of smoke, and a refined oak echo.

Finish

Long and elegant, the finish carries dried fruit sweetness—raisins and fig—swept in a whisper of sherry. Nutty almond, cocoa and warm spice unfold on refined oak, lingering with a soft, velvety bitterness as the glow slowly fades.
