Mossburn Whisky No.36 Inchgower 2011 is a 12-year-old single malt finished in a Sauternes cask that reveals a delicate, floral character married with gentle dessert-wine sweetness. The combination highlights orange peel and vanilla on the nose and introduces soft floral and stone-fruit nuances on the palate, while Inchgower’s coastal character remains subtly present, creating a polished and classy single malt that rewards contemplative sipping.
The wine-cask influence pairs beautifully with citrus-glazed seafood such as scallops or lemon sole, and vegetarian pairings like goat’s cheese with honeyed walnuts also complement its floral sweetness; for dessert, a peach tart or light almond cake will echo the whisky’s delicate fruit notes.
The nose offers orange peel and vanilla with a hint of hazelnut and fudge; the palate is floral and refined, showing peach and gentle honeyed sweetness that culminates in a poised, lingering finish.
