Major Barker Old Scotch

Major Barker Old Scotch is a bit of a ghost in the whisky world—there’s very little publicly available information or tasting reviews under that exact name. It may be a discontinued or private-label blend, possibly bottled for a specific market or retailer, which makes it tricky to pin down a definitive profile.

That said, if it follows the style of other vintage blended Scotches from lesser-known bottlers, you might expect:

Nose: Soft and slightly dusty, with notes of dried fruit, old oak, and a touch of leather. Possibly some vanilla and grain sweetness.

Palate: Mellow and rounded, offering toffee, malt, and hints of nutmeg or clove. There could be a faint smoky edge or coal dust if it leans toward a Highland influence.

Finish: Medium-short, with a warming spice and lingering grainy sweetness.
