Detailed Description
A celebratory release from Speyburn to commemorate the 18th anniversary of Bobby Anderson’s position as distillery manager. This single malt, aged for 18 years in American and Spanish oak casks, has aromas of toffee and sugared almonds, as well as tropical fruits on the nose. The palate holds flavours of rich dark chocolate, toffee and a touch of citrus, with plenty of smoke throughout. The finish is long and smoky, with a sweeter honeyed edge.
Speyburn 18 Year Old Anniversary Edition Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: Aromas of toffee and sugared almonds, as well as tropical fruits on the nose.
Palate: There is a much greater presence of peat in the taste than the nose suggests. The smokiness quickly hits the palate and then tapers off.
Finish: Lingering finish.
