Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery-gold sheen.
Nose
Opulent sherry-driven aroma with dark raisin, fig and dried plum, laced with orange zest and burnt sugar. Rich oak and polished leather frame the malt, while whispers of cocoa, almond and spice deepen the complexity. A warm, velvety Highlands bouquet that hints at elegance and quiet age.
Palate
Silky and refined on the palate, this 16-year-old unveils a sherried sweetness of dark raisin and fig, melting into orange zest, toffee and cocoa. Velvety oak frames each sip with warm spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—while almond and dried-fruit nuances linger, finishing long, elegant, and gently toasty.
Finish
An elegant, lingering finish: sherry-driven sweetness coats the palate, with dried fig and raisin, toasted almond, and cocoa nib, fading into warm vanilla and delicate spice.
