2016 Cl 6y

About

This Campbeltown Blended Malt from 2016 is a fascinating discovery from Scotland's most characterful whisky region. Matured in a Pedro Ximénez Sherry Hogshead, this 6-year-old expression delivers a rich, complex profile that belies its relative youth. At a robust 50% ABV, this independent bottling unfolds layer upon layer of intriguing flavours. The nose reveals seductive toffee, vanilla, and fresh citrus fruits, interspersed with exotic fruit notes and hints of roasted apple. On the palate, sweet, malty characteristics dominate, with generous toffee and caramel candy, complemented by vanilla pastry and mild baking spice. Ripe banana and pineapple add tropical dimensions and light coastal undertones. The finish is short and sweet, with toasted oak and vanilla providing a pleasant conclusion. A surprisingly interesting and complex whisky that rewards exploration.
