Rosebank (silent) Mackillop's Choice Single Malt Scotch Whisky 15 Year Old · 1989 Vintage

Colour

Pale gold, sunlit and refined, with a soft honey glow and a whisper of amber at the rim.

Nose

Elegant, perfumed nose of citrus blossom, white flowers and crisp green apple with pear. A delicate honeyed sweetness and vanilla frame the aroma, with a touch of almond and flint-like mineral. A restrained sherry thread adds dried orange peel and fig, a trace of cocoa that promises depth without heaviness.

Palate

Silky and light, Rosebank glides across the palate with orchard fruit and citrus—green apple, pear, lemon zest—swept by honeyed sweetness. Waxy, floral notes mingle with almond, vanilla, and a touch of delicate oak, while a whisper of sherry adds depth. The finish is refined and long, with subtle spice and a graceful, lingering echo.

Finish

Silky, long finish of orange zest and dried apricot, lifted by sherry sweetness. Subtle cinnamon and nutmeg give way to cocoa, almond and orchard fruit, fading slowly into refined oak and a whisper of resin.
