Adelphi Private Stock Reserve

The Adelphi Private Stock Reserve exemplifies the understated craftsmanship of Scotch whisky blending and deserves a prominent place in any aficionado's collection.

Tasting note

Nose

The Adelphi Private Stock Reserve opens with an inviting bouquet of ripe fruit notes, mixed with subtle hints of honey and a slight smokiness. As the aromas unfold, delicate notes of vanilla and oak come through, adding complexity and depth to the flavours.

Taste

On the tongue, the whisky offers a smooth and rich taste sensation, alternating the sweetness of butterscotch and dried fruits with mildly spicy undertones. The interplay of these flavours results in a blend that is both accessible and intriguing.

Finish

The finish is long and warming with a gentle smokiness that slowly turns into a dry, slightly spicy aftertaste.
