The Cigar Malt 22 years 1997 - 2019 #3645

A whisky named The Cigar Malt sets high expectations – bold, rich and layered. This 22-year-old single malt, bottled by Ian MacLeod from a First Fill Oloroso Sherry Butt, lives up to its name perfectly: ideal with a fine cigar, but equally stunning on its own as a post-dinner sipper. Intense, complex and elegant – a sherry-matured gem for the true connoisseur.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Lush aromas of dark fruits, prunes, raisins, dates and roasted nuts. Followed by notes of leather, tobacco, dark chocolate and a touch of balsamic glaze.

Palate

Full-bodied, powerful and velvety. Candied orange, espresso beans, clove, cinnamon and walnut create a rich and satisfying profile made for slow appreciation.

Finish

Long, warming and deep with lingering sherry richness, dark wood, cigar box notes and a hint of black pepper.
