Nose: Dried fruits ripen, then soften. Vanilla accompanies green apple hand in hand. Ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon create an ensemble in the background, with strong notes of polished oak and a depth of resinous, juicy oranges.
Palate: The palate opens rich in wood spices, slowly showing all their viscosity. Wood smoke flits in and out.
Finish: The heavier raisin and sultana flavours take over, meandering to a long full finish.

Nose: Ripe gooseberry notes together with sweet vanilla and oak, combined with a freshly cut barley flavour.
Palate: Light chocolate and soft, green fruit, with a twist of old oak and honey for a satisfying, smooth whisky taste.
Finish: A long and lasting finish to this single malt, demonstrating a real depth of character that is testimony to an Auchentoshan whisky that's Distilled Different.
