Tasting Notes

Imagine a gentle breeze whispering through the rugged Highlands, carrying the aroma of earthy peat and a hint of sweetness. That's the essence of this single cask Highland single malt. Distilled in February 1996, this whisky was lovingly nurtured in a Madeira cask, allowing it to soak up the rich, fruity notes that complement the smoky undertones. Bottled in September 2007, this limited release from Ian MacLeod's Chieftain's collection is a true delight for the senses. Each sip unveils layers of complexity, with a harmonious blend of smoke, dried fruits, and a lingering warmth that embraces the soul. A testament to the art of whisky-making, this dram transports you to the heart of the Scottish Highlands, where tradition and craftsmanship reign supreme.
