Dried apricot, sultana, and a touch of orange oil. Soft oak resin, walnut, and a faint old‑library must that signals true age. A whisper of heather and gentle smoke, typical of 1960s distillation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePalate - Silky, composed, and unmistakably from another era:Mature malt, buttered brioche, and caramelised citrus. Stewed orchard fruit—apple, pear, quince—layered with almond, hazelnut, and vanilla pod. Mid‑palate brings light spice (nutmeg, clove), oak polish, and a subtle waxiness reminiscent of old Knockando vintages. A soft, warming depth without aggression; the 1963 spirit shows its pedigree.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinish - Long, mellow, and quietly luxurious: Honeyed malt, dried fruit, and orange peel.
