Tasting Notes

A captivating harmony of diverse malt whiskies converges in this 17 Year Old Blended Malt, unveiling a symphony of flavors that tantalize the senses. Upon nosing, the alluring aromas of sherry-soaked oak seamlessly intertwine with the sweetness of caramelized brown sugar, enticing baking spices, and the richness of dark chocolate. As the liquid caresses the palate, a velvety embrace of mocha, zesty orange peel, succulent sherried raisins, and the warmth of nutmeg unfolds, creating a mesmerizing tapestry of flavors. The finish lingers with the delightful notes of hot cross buns and the subtle sweetness of dried apricots, leaving a lasting impression of indulgence. This remarkable blend is a testament to the artistry of blending, skillfully combining a 2001 vintage sherry-matured malt with a 2006 Aultmore single malt, both aged in first-fill sherry butts, before bottling at an invigorating 53% ABV.
