Speyside
Tasting Notes
Unveiling a harmonious matrimony of flavors, this Speyside 25 Year Old whisky captivates from the first whiff. The nose unfurls a delightful dance of stewed apple pastries, zesty orange honey, and soft apricot, inviting you into a world of fruity indulgence. As the liquid graces your palate, cooked orchard fruits and cakey spices take center stage, accompanied by hints of candied pineapple, a touch of ginger, and thick-cut marmalade, creating a delightful symphony of flavors. The finish leaves a lasting impression, with a touch of vegetal malt mingling with notes of After Eights, cushioned by delicate toasted oak, and lingering zesty tropical fruits. This marvellous single malt, distilled in 1996 and aged for 25 years in a trio of bourbon barrels, is a true testament to the art of whisky-making, where time and careful maturation have crafted a remarkable spirit that tantalizes the senses and leaves you craving for more.
