Tasting Notes

Nose

Heather honey — toasted malt, dried fruit, citrus zest, fruitcake, creamy vanilla, beeswax, the 21 years adding depth the 12 only hints at

Palate

Smooth and rich — coconut, vanilla, caramel, candied orange, raisin, subtle smoke, toasted oak, waxy lush mouthfeel, the sherry cask adding dried fruit complexity

Finish

Long and warm — spicy with charcoal touches, lingering honey, fruit, gentle oak, the Golden Dram earning its name twice over

Expert Review

8/10

The Golden Dram grows up — twenty-one years in bourbon and sherry casks producing luxurious honey, coconut, caramel, and stone fruit. Best Highland Single Malt at the World Whiskies Awards 2014, Gold at IWSC 2013. Waxy, lush mouthfeel with heather honey and beeswax.
