This is an eighteen year old bottling from the mothballed distillery of Caperdonich.
This whisky has been bottled at 50%abv without chill-filtration as a part of Douglas Laing's Old Malt Cask Range.
There is a wealth of salted caramel and vanilla pods with a hint of charcoal and dried stone fruits.
Charred oak and dried red berries form a dry and spicily complex flavour profile.
The is long with vanilla and menthol notes, just before the end a hint of green boiled sweets emerges.
Caperdonichs are always a fantastic experience to taste and this one demonstrates why.
