Connoisseurs Choice 1986
from Scapa Distillery (cask strength)
Created in 1968 by whisky visionary, George Urquhart, over the years this range has featured single malts from almost 100 Scottish distilleries. Comprising more than 2,000 individual bottlings, each Connoisseurs Choice tells its life story through its label: cask type, bottling date, strength, vintage and tasting note.
Nose
Aromas of tropical fruit weave around subtle glazed-meat notes. Kiwi and honeydew melon come together with manuka honey whilst sprigs of mint add a fresh lift.
Taste
Mouth-coating; intense woody flavours transform into aniseed and ginger spice. Hints of wood smoke are balanced by caramelised bananas coated with luxurious dark chocolate.
Finish
A medium finish with lingering woody notes.
