Caperdonich 25 y.o. Peated
Special features: The 25-year-old Caperdonich Peated presents itself as a rare and fascinating original bottling from a now-closed Speyside distillery. The limited cask selection from hogsheads gives this whisky a special depth and complexity. The pleasant smokiness is an exception within the typical style of Caperdonich.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: A delicate smoke with notes of peat, accompanied by sweet hints of vanilla and honey as well as subtle spices.
Palate: Full-bodied and smooth with a beautiful balance of malty, smoky, and fruity aromas.
Finish: Long and warming, accompanied by a fine smoky note and a pleasant spiciness.
Distillery/Bottler: Caperdonich was founded in 1898 in Speyside and was long known for its unpeated whiskies. The distillery, which closed in 2002, is now a sought-after collector's item due to its rare bottlings. The original bottlings preserve the classic quality and tradition of the house.
