Royal Lochnagar Rare Malts Selection Single Malt Scotch Whisky 24 Year Old · 1972 Vintage

Colour

Rich sun-warmed amber with copper-gold highlights and a hint of mahogany at the rim.

Nose

Opulent sherry whispers rise from the glass, dark fig and prune mingling with orange zest and toffee. Rich vanilla, cedar and leather unfold into cocoa-dusted spice, with hints of tobacco and espresso. Concentrated and regal, the aroma hints at maturity and depth, promising a long, contemplative reach.

Palate

Opulent and sherried, this 24-year-old coats the palate with dark prune and fig, brightened by orange zest, layered over rich toffee and cocoa. At 55.7% ABV the texture is velvety yet assertive, with cinnamon, clove and toasted oak lending warmth and depth to a long, refined mouthfeel.

Finish

An opulent, long finish with sherried depth: ripe fig and prune unfold into dark chocolate and orange zest, while toasted almond and warm spice fuse with oak. The sweetness remains gracefully, tapering to a velvet, resinous glow that lingers with coffee-kissed notes.
