Undisclosed Orkney Thompson Bros Single Malt Scotch Whisky 13 Year Old · 2011 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber-gold with coppery hues and a honeyed glow.

Nose

A vibrant burst of pineapple, lime zest and kiwi leads the aroma, with apricot and nectarine adding sunny depth. Subtle peat threads weave through the bright distillate, with its strength still evident beneath the fruit.

Palate

Olive oil-drizzled warm bread with mint jelly, eucalyptus and hints of old copper coins open to growing fruits like nectarine and white grape. Rosemary and spearmint weave herbal depth; a splash of water tames the intensity, letting the fruit notes emerge with clarity.

Finish

Bold and lingering, the finish coats the palate with warm Cognac-spiced sweetness tempered by subtle peat and coastal brine. Orchard fruit lingers—nectarine and white grape—before yielding to a peppery warmth that slowly subsides, leaving a refined, lasting impression of richness and elegance.
