Information:

Distillery: Royal LochnagarTM Selected ReserveTM

Age: -

Strength: 43% ABV

Place of Origin: Lochnagar

Region: Highland

Taste:

in brief… For the connoisseur.

in a sentence… Old and mature, but not showing its age. Subtle, unassuming, elegant, sophisticated – also inoffensive.

Nose:

Deep and complex. Bosky and mossy, but with hedgerow flora and fruits (brambles, damson jam); sawn wood and minty-fresh pine resin; turned earth; behind this some deep toffee notes (treacle toffee?) and beyond that artists turpentine, which keeps it fresh and balances the wood. Changes and develops continually. With water, varnish advances (artist’s studio). Some coffee grounds, toffee, warm polythene, baked apple tart (with a scorched crust). Overall, sweet and deep. With slightly more water a hint of soft rubber and a waft of dry sherry.

Insights from some of the best in the business

"Complex nose with toasty notes mingling with honey, nuts and nougat with just a hint of aniseed. Rich and full in the mouth with impression of enormous malt content ! Hints of liquorice and touch of golden syrup. The massive malt mellows out to give beautiful balance and firm texture. A whole range of flavours appear in the mouth and carry through to long, comforting finish."

Benrinnes 15 Years Old Flora & Fauna
A rich, sweet, smooth malt which sees Benrinnes’ fresh, green estery Speyside characteristics subsumed in its dark aromas.

Caol Ila Distillers Edition
Caol Ila Distillers Edition
Richly flavoured yet also drying and finely balanced, the Moscatel cask wood is not over evident in this double-matured Caol Ila.

Knockando 18 Years Old
Matured slowly in our oak casks, it's accessible in both aroma and flavour; easy to drink, young at heart for an 18 year old.

Surprisingly clean, dry and refreshingly direct, Mannochmore makes a good aperitif.
