Duncan Taylor KinCLaith Rarest 1969 51Y 49.3%

Dive into the legendary history of Scotch whisky with the Rarest Kinclaith 1969 - 51 Year Old, a true relic from a vanished distillery. Kinclaith, a forgotten gem of the Lowlands region, was founded in 1957 and closed its doors in 1975, leaving behind a legacy of only 18 years of production. Distilled in 1969, this exceptional single malt was aged for 51 years in a single oak cask before being bottled at natural cask strength in 2021, with an alcohol content of 49.3% by volume. With only 95 bottles produced, each one represents a drop of rare and precious heritage. This whisky is an invitation to rediscover the refined aromas of a legendary distillery while paying tribute to the history of Scotch whisky.

TASTING NOTES:

NOSE: The nose opens with captivating aromas of soft oak, accompanied by subtle nuances of vanilla and honey. These delicate scents are enriched by a hint of dried fruits and a light floral touch that evokes timeless elegance.

PALATE: The richness of the cask fully reveals itself on the palate. After half a century, the wood remains active and delivers complex flavors of seasonal spices such as cloves and cinnamon. A remarkable freshness persists, supported by notes of caramel, candied fruits, and a subtle herbal hint reminiscent of the Lowlands.

FINISH: The finish is a masterpiece of balance, where the distillate and the cask merge in perfect harmony. Long and lingering, it leaves an elegant imprint with woody and lightly spiced notes that unfold slowly.
