Catto’s Deluxe 21 Year Old

Here’s a tasting profile for the Catto’s Deluxe 21 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky, a rare and mature expression from one of Scotland’s oldest blending houses:

Producer: James Catto & Co. Ltd.

Style: Blended Scotch whisky

Age: 21 years

ABV: 43%

Components: High malt content, featuring unpeated Highland and Speyside malts (e.g., Balblair, Balmenach, Knockdhu, Pulteney, Speyburn) blended with Lowland grain whiskies

Master Blender: Stuart Harvey

Nose :- Elegant and refined: Honey, vanilla, and light citrus zest. Hints of dried fruit, oak, and a touch of floral perfume. Soft caramel and almond nougat round out the bouquet

Palate :- Smooth and layered: Rich toffee, malt, and baked apple. Subtle cinnamon spice, grassiness, and oak tannins. Velvety texture with a balanced sweetness

A mature and mellow blend with depth and finesse. Ideal for those who appreciate subtlety over intensity, and the quiet elegance of well-aged components
