A smooth 23-year-old from the closed Caperdonich distillery, which was founded by Glen Grant and closed in 2002. Red cherry, oak and tobacco on the nose with a smooth rounded palate of spiced fruit cake, kirsch and toffee. This is a whisky with plenty of flavours.
That Boutique-y Whisky Company was founded to bring forgotten drams from some of the world's best distilleries to the whisky-craving masses. Their limited edition labels are hand illustrated and designed with a nod towards whimsicality, often incorporating whisky industry 'in jokes'
Tasting Notes
Nose: A floral bouquet of roses and honeysuckle, with a sweet suggestion of rich fruit cake and nuts underneath.
Palate: Much lighter than the nose suggests, with fresher florals, a honey sweetness and a slight peppery tingle.
Finish: Toasted hazelnuts, a touch of salt and then more of that honey coming through.
