Strathisla Gordon & MacPhail Single Malt Scotch Whisky 10 Year Old · 2005 Vintage

Colour

A warm, deep amber with coppery highlights and a honey-gold glow.

Nose

Elegant Speyside perfume: honeyed malt and vanilla mingle with orchard fruits—apple and pear—alongside dried raisin and fig. A touch of almond, warm spice, and cocoa rise over a sherry-soft bed, with polished oak lending a creamy, refined finish.

Palate

Silky, medium-bodied with creamy toffee and honey upfront, then orchard fruit and orange zest. Sherry-influenced depth brings raisin, fig and toasted almond, drifting into cocoa and faint spice. The finish is long, warm and nutty, with lingering oak and spice.

Finish

Silky and enduring, the finish unfolds with honeyed malt, almond and orange zest, enriched by a gentle sherry warmth. Dried fruit, cocoa and spice linger long on the palate, finishing with a refined, warming glow.
