Product details
The Royal Lochnagar 16-Year-Old Special Release 2021 is a refined single malt that embodies the grace and character of this esteemed distillery. Crafted to showcase its lively spirit, this whisky offers a delicate yet complex sensory journey. The nose opens with mellow aromas of orange zest, green apple, and a hint of puff pastry, underpinned by a mossy, lightly woody base. A splash of water enhances the fruity profile, introducing firm white grapes while amplifying its gentle spiciness. The medium body is accompanied by a creamy texture that glides effortlessly across the palate, delivering a delightful balance of barley-sugar sweetness, luscious fruity acidity, and a developing oaky dryness.
Perfect as an apéritif, this single malt is vibrant and fresh, reminiscent of spring sunshine in both texture and taste. The finish is warm and welcoming, like the first rays of sun after winter, with lingering white pepper and subtle wood spices rounding out the experience. Bottled as part of the 2021 Special Releases collection, this 16-year-old expression captures the essence of Royal Lochnagar: poised, elegant, and full of life. Whether enjoyed neat or with a splash of water, it invites whisky lovers to savor the artistry and finesse of one of Scotland's most cherished distilleries.
