A mature single malt that balances honeyed sweetness with rich fortified-wine finishes—polished, elegant and ideal as an after-dinner dram.
Description
This 16-year single malt spent time in sherry and port casks, which contribute a layered sweetness and nutty complexity without overwhelming the malt’s core character. It’s a composed expression with a warm, inviting aroma and a smooth mouthfeel.
Serve neat to enjoy its full aromatic profile and the interplay between malt and fortified-wine cask influence.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Honeyed malt, dried fruit and gentle nuttiness with polished oak.
- Palate: Rich dried fruit compote, toasted nuts and a hint of coastal brine underpinned by oak.
- Finish: Long, rounded finish with lingering honey, dried fruit and soft oak tannins.
Why This Bottle Stands Out
The dual sherry and port finishing layers add depth and a dessert-like richness while preserving the clarity of the malt, making it an elegant choice for those who enjoy refined, fortified-cask influence.
Perfect For
- After-dinner sipping with a fine dessert
- Gifting to someone who appreciates finished single malts
- Savoring neat as a contemplative nightcap
