“Dense and seamless on the nose, with creamy toffee and hazelnut, leading into a formidably structured palate of dried apricot, leather and spice, plus savoury notes of rancio. A rich and robust blend with Bourbon cask evident on the nose, Sherry cask on the palate.”Decanter

“An accomplished whisky in its own right and a superb example of a 50 Year Old.”Elite Traveler
-
“A revitalised combination of caramel, orange pastille sweets and honeyed almond.”Luxuriate Life
Character
Demonstrating layers of complexity and richness, on the nose, there is dense toffee sweetness punctuated by subtle floral notes shining through at the top. The palate is vibrant and lively with a creamy, rich mouthfeel and highlights of seville orange and marmalade leading to an exceptionally long-lasting, sweet citrus finish.
Significance
Distilled in 1972 and initially aged to near perfection in a combination of European and American oak, this blend embarked upon a brave new chapter through a fifteen-year secondary finishing period in active ex-bourbon barrels. Such a process is unusual but has added fresh vigour to the already weighty blend – a testament to the power of new beginnings and a reminder that is never too late to embark upon the next chapter.
