Cadenhead's North British 40 Year Old

North British Distillery, founded in 1885 in Edinburgh, is one of Scotland’s most historic grain whisky producers, originally established to supply high-quality grain spirit to blenders and now jointly owned by Diageo and Edrington.Grain whisky from North British is rarely bottled as a single expression, making independent releases like this one particularly noteworthy for enthusiasts.

Nose: Layers of coconut milk, polished oak, gentle cereal sweetness, and subtle hoppy complexity open the experience with refined age-worth depth.

Palate: A silky, rich interplay of brown sugar, rye bread, toffee penny sweets, and toasted oats, offering surprising texture and dimension for a grain whisky.

Finish: Long and creamy, closing on notes of caramelised white chocolate, almonds, aniseed, and soft nutty warmth that lingers with nuanced elegance
