North British The Yellow Edition Single Cask #316281 Whisky 13 Year Old · 2009 Vintage

Colour

Sherry-hued deep amber with mahogany depth and coppery highlights.

Nose

Opulent PX sherry aroma unleashes a tapestry of dark fruits—raisin, prune, fig and plum—woven with toffee, caramel and a whisper of orange zest. Cocoa nibs, espresso and toasted oak spice mingle with vanilla and almond paste, all carried by bold cask-strength warmth and a refined, lingering sweetness.

Palate

Velvety and opulent, the palate delivers thick PX-driven sweetness—ripe raisins, fig and date, molasses and toffee—woven with dark chocolate and a hint of burnt sugar. Spice erupts with cinnamon and clove, a whisper of orange zest, then vanilla and oak provide structure. At cask strength, a warming, persistent finish unfolds into dried fruit, cocoa, and subtle leather, finished by creamy grain texture.

Finish

PX sherry washes the finish in a luxuriously long, velvety sweetness—raisin, fig and date fruit with dark chocolate and toffee, lightly seasoned by cinnamon and clove. Warm oak lingers, a refined, aromatic fade that slowly echoes.
