Legendary Midnight Silkie is a rich, smoky Irish malt blend with dark sweetness, dried fruit and warming spice. Molasses and chocolate-orange notes meet dry peat smoke, while brighter citrus keeps the flavour lively.
Made entirely from five triple-distilled single malts, it brings together several cask influences in a layered, full-flavoured whiskey. Raisins, toffee apple and toasted oak develop alongside tobacco and leather, leading into a gently warming finish.
The smokiest expression in Silkie’s core collection, Midnight suits drinkers who enjoy substantial peat balanced by fruit, sweetness and spice.
Tasting notes:
Nose: Rich muscovado sweetness, pipe smoke, christmas spice, sandalwood, orange zest, baked apples, chocolate orange, sweet tobacco, rounded, linseed and earthy
Palate: Initially intense molasses sweetness, as it warms a dry peat smoke takes over. Pipe ash , raisins and sultanas boiled with nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. Then toffee apples, a toasted, drying oak and tobacco and leather and yet a freshness – a brisk hint of pine and blood oranges even sweet grapefruit
Finish: The sweet spice just melts gently way and leaves a comforting dried fruit and peat fire warmth
