VAT 69 Finest Scotch Whisky Miniature (Old Bottling)

Colour

Rich amber-gold with warm honey and copper highlights.

Nose

Bright, inviting nose with orange zest and ripe apple layered over honeyed toffee and vanilla. Dried apricot and raisin mingle with subtle sherry depth, while almond, cocoa and warm spice (cinnamon, nutmeg) add complexity. A touch of oak and a gentle smoke thread through a refined, balanced bouquet—classic VAT 69 elegance.

Palate

Silky entry with honeyed sweetness and malt, inviting orchard fruits—apple and pear—alongside raisins and apricot. Vanilla, caramel, and toffee cloak the palate, while gentle spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—lends warmth. Subtle almond and oak provide structure; a touch of sherry depth adds richness, finishing with lingering notes of spice, cocoa, and toasted oak.

Finish

Silky and lingering, the finish opens with vanilla sweetness and a kiss of honey, then soft spices unfold against light oak. Subtle orchard fruit and caramel notes drift through a warm, clean fade, leaving a refined, balanced impression that lingers gracefully.
