This Càrn Mòr Mannochmore 2009 is a youthful but rounded Speyside single malt. Distilled in 2009 and matured for 11 years in a first-fill hogshead, it offers a bright, fruit-sugar sweetness balanced by soft spice and a clean, smooth finish.
In the glass, it shows a pale golden colour. The nose reveals toffee and candied orange, with a gentle swirl of warm cinnamon. The palate is rich yet fresh, delivering sweet toffee, orange candy, and delicate malt, with a subtle spice. The finish lingers softly, with a warm, spicy echo and a touch of citrus sugar.
Taste
Nose: Toffee, orange candy, gentle cinnamon and a hint of sweet malt.
Palate: Smooth and creamy, with rich toffee, candied orange peel, soft malt and a whisper of warm spice.
Finish: Clean and lingering — mellow citrus sweetness with a gentle cinnamon-spice fade.
Drinking
This whisky is best served neat to fully appreciate its sugar-candied orange and toffee notes. A small drop of water can gently soften the sweetness and coax out the spice. It’s a lovely dram for contemplative sipping, and would also work in a spirit-forward whisky cocktail where its candied character can shine.

Notable: The flavour profile of toffee and orange candy, alongside a warm hint of cinnamon, makes this a distinctive and accessible Speyside dram that bridges youthful zest and mature balance.
