Tasting Notes Profile:

Nose:
Refined and aromatic, the nose offers layers of rich vanilla, polished oak, and sweet butterscotch. Notes of coconut, dried banana, and crème caramel emerge, alongside hints of nutmeg, old leather, and dried florals. There’s a gentle maturity present—elegant and understated—with a whisper of toasted marshmallow and antique wood.

Palate:
Silky and mouth-coating, the palate delivers a luxurious blend of vanilla custard, soft brown sugar, and honey-drizzled nuts. The grain spirit adds a creamy texture, while extended cask aging brings out depth—spice cabinet notes (clove, ginger, cinnamon), hints of dried apricot, and a touch of coffee cream. The alcohol is well-integrated, allowing the flavors to unfold gracefully.

Finish:
Long, smooth, and contemplative, the finish lingers with notes of sweet oak, fading spice, and a trace of cocoa powder. A final lift of vanilla and candied citrus leaves a lasting impression of quiet complexity.

Overall:

Berry Bros. & Rudd North British 27-Year-Old Cask #57276 is a masterclass in aged single grain whisky. With its combination of silky texture, layered sweetness, and mature oak character, it offers a rich and rewarding experience for those who appreciate the subtle beauty of long-aged grain. Bottled at a cask strength of 52.2%, it’s a refined sipper best enjoyed slowly—ideal for contemplative evenings or as a standout addition to any connoisseur’s collection.
