A unique blended malt from Cadenhead’s Creations range, Robust Smoky Embers Batch #1 unites single malts from Invergordon and Caol Ila. Distilled in 1992 and aged 23 years, this limited release is bottled at cask strength, delivering a sweet, smoky, and complex profile for adventurous whisky lovers.
Tasting Notes: - Nose: Smoke is present—fairly mellow and not attacking. Invergordon brings lots of vanilla and custard cream notes. - Palate: Very sweet with lots of toffee, fudge, and tablet once you get past the initial smokiness. Becomes fruitier with time, very mouth-coating with earthy dunnage notes. - Finish: A salty lingering finish with smooth honeycomb.
