Tasting Notes

Nose

Vanilla, honeycomb, butterscotch, orange peel and marmalade, cardamom, cocoa, banana chips — warm and enveloping

Palate

Creamy toffee and marzipan, cinnamon, ginger, red berries, honey, clove, dried orange peel, almonds — the 100% sherry oak fully expressed

Finish

Medium-long — warm spice fading into gentle oak and dark chocolate, the slow distillation evident in the clean, rounded character

Expert Review

8/10

Scotland's slowest distillation — air-dried, unpeated barley through unhurried copper pot stills. The only fully unpeated Highland malt. Sits right on the Highland Line: the distillery itself is in the Highlands, but its warehouses are technically in the Lowlands. 100% sherry oak maturation since distilling began in 1833 at Dumgoyne, north of Glasgow.
