Whisky Trail,
Strathclyde 1993 (29YO)
55.1% ABV
Elixir Distiller's exciting The Whisky Trail range focuses on lesser-known distilleries and unique expressions from some familiar favourites. The Whisky Trail represents drams that stray from the beaten path and into unfamiliar but exciting territory.
This 29-year-old Strathclyde Single Grain Whisky was distilled in 1993 and bottled in 2022 after maturing in an ex-Bourbon barrel for the Whiskey Trail series.
Region: Lowlands.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: An expensive vanilla bean candle burns on a polished wooden side table. Warm brioche rolls are heavily dusted with confectioner’s sugar. A jar of unrefined caster sugar infuses with split vanilla pods. There is a faint hint of freshly sawn wood in the background.
Palate: The palate has a rich, unctuous and syrupy mouthfeel. Boiled condensed milk caramel is layered with rich, melted Belgian chocolate to provide a dip for skewers of cookie dough and marshmallow cubes.
Finish: Decadent, silky smooth and luxurious! More, please!
