Strathclyde Berry Bros & Rudd - Single Cask #106490 Whisky 18 Year Old · 2005 Vintage
In stock
The nose is initially reticent but some time in the glass brings out subtle banana bread, coconut milk and peach. The palate, conversely, is a crescendo of rich vanilla, cream soda, desiccated coconut and dark chocolate. It is incredibly powerful and integrates well with the high alcohol. The finish brings tingling spice and more subtle vanilla. Grain whisky really hits its stride at around 18 years and this is a prime example.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery-gold highlights.
Nose
Initially reticent, the nose slowly opens in the glass to reveal a delicate bakery aroma: banana bread, coconut milk and peach, a softly tropical sweetness balanced by creamy depth.
Palate
On the palate, a crescendo of rich vanilla, cream soda, desiccated coconut and dark chocolate. Incredibly powerful yet elegant, it melds with the high ABV to deliver lush sweetness, a creamy mouthfeel and a warming, lingering spice.
Finish
An electric, lingering finish of tingling spice, unfolding into a refined whisper of vanilla. Warmth remains, leaving a satin, comforting afterglow.
