Strathclyde Xtra Old Particular - Single Refill Barrel Whisky 34 Year Old · 1987 Vintage
In stock
Distilled at Strathclyde Distillery, this single grain was first distilled in September of 1987. Hand bottled in 2022 one of only 210 bottles.
Tasting notes:
So big, so proud, so full and so sweet as the nose opens, replete with vanilla pods, cinnamon and nutmeg hues. Allied to juicy coconut and cereals, as dulcet on the palate as anticipated. But the spices are more pronounced ahead of later vanilla ice cream, fudge and wafer flavours. The finish continues to show the vanilla, but also loads of sugar and that earlier biscut-style of backdrop.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden honey with warm amber hues and a kiss of sunlit copper.
Nose
Big, luscious nose opens with vanilla pods, cinnamon and nutmeg, tempered by juicy coconut and cereals. A warm, dulcet sweetness rises, hinting at vanilla ice cream, fudge and wafer to follow, while a refined grain warmth lingers in the aroma.
Palate
On the palate, juicy coconut and cereals deliver a dulcet sweetness, while vanilla pods, cinnamon and nutmeg weave through. Spices intensify mid‑palate, giving way to vanilla ice cream, fudge and wafer notes, all wrapped in a biscuit‑kissed, sugary undertone.
Finish
Vanilla endures with generous sweetness, carried by a biscuity backdrop. Spices—cinnamon and nutmeg—linger before yielding to creamy vanilla ice cream, fudge and wafer, leaving a long, sugary finish that warmly coats the palate.
