Strathmill 35 Year Old 1986 Vintage Reserve Milroy's 55.2% 70cl

Oily, round and cereal-driven, elusive Speyside distillery Strathmill is loved for its waxen texture and rich complexity. This 35-year-old bottling is especially intense, thanks to its surprisingly fast angel’s share.

Strathmill 35 Year Old 1986 Vintage Reserve Milroy's 55.2% 70cl

Product:

Strathmill is often considered to be Speyside’s most elusive distillery. But despite its wallflower tendencies, it’s won legions of fans for its oily texture and expressive character. Aged for 35 years in an ex-bourbon barrel, this bottling is abundant in both waxiness and complexity. But the angels were especially greedy over those three-and-a-half decades, resulting in an unusually small yield and heightened intensity. For Strathmill lovers, this is an essential expression to add to the collection.

Why We Chose It

A true underrated gem: Strathmills are rarely seen at this age, even from indie bottlers. Oily and rich, this is a powerful beast – an outlier for long-aged Speyside single malts. It tastes like olive oil and schwarzbrot. Totally delicious, and an unusual flavour profile for Scotch.

Milroy’s Tasting Notes

Nose

Immediately powerful and bold, with more vibrancy than you might expect from a 35-year-old malt. Rhubarb and custard and pear drop sweets spring from the glass, alongside fresh green apple, cream soda, sweet granola and desiccated coconut notes. With time a stalky greenness emerges, softened by white chocolate, latte and icing sugar elements. Sweetness comes in waves, with melon, orange and grapefruit peels and shortbread. 

Palate

Super round, waxy and creamy, but with zips of baking spice, chilli and black pepper heat. Cinnamon doughnuts, red fruits and custard cream biscuits build out the texture, with peach and melon arriving later with a few drops of water. There’s a rocket lead prickle alongside the freshness of grapefruit peels. 

Finish

Medium in length with more black pepper, a subtle leafiness, and lingering cream soda.
