Tasting Notes

Indulge in a delightful symphony of flavors with the Auchroisk 20 Year Old Moscatel Cask Finish (Darkness). This delectable single malt whisky unveils a captivating nose reminiscent of rum-raisin ice cream drizzled with toffee sauce and a hint of chocolate shavings. Underneath, notes of stewed apple and cinnamon tantalize the senses. On the palate, a harmonious blend of five spice, zesty Seville orange, and rich fruitcake intertwine with nutty malt undertones. The finish lingers with the comforting embrace of cooked apples, autumnal spices, and sugared almonds. This exceptional whisky, independently bottled as part of the Darkness range, has been expertly finished in a sherry octave cask that previously held Moscatel sherry, imparting a unique and exquisite character to the spirit.
