Murray McDavid

Caperdonich 50 Years Old ULTRA

ABV: 47.1% 70 cL

Distilled in 1972, this Caperdonich spirit was filled into an American oak hogshead to start its epic journey. The mellow nature of American oak has been the perfect vessel to elegantly evolve and enhance the classic flavours of this heritage single malt. At 50 years old, this surviving cask of rare, vintage Caperdonich Distillery spirit has been fondly nurtured over decades as it’s matured into a charming and characterful dram, representing a bygone era.


A beautiful bouquet of fresh peaches and apricot cream, sweet barley sugars and vanilla pods are followed by pineapple cubes, sweet ginger and pine. Intensely tropical and vibrant aromas follow on the palate and, after a little time in the glass, the whisky blossoms to reveal sumptuous honied cereal and buttery pastry, that deliver a delicious fruity and satisfyingly long waxy finish.
