Product Description

LAUDER’S FINEST is the original blend created by Archibald Lauder in Glasgow back in 1834. Originally created to meet the Glaswegian “Sweet-Tooth” of the clientele who frequented the public houses he owned. Blended from the finest Highland, Lowland and Speyside malts, matured in bourbon oak casks to create a light, yet fruity and full-bodied Scotch which has been in continuous production since 1834. Archibald Lauder ’s very precise blend was soon awarded several gold medals in international competitions which can still be seen today on the unique 4 sided dimple bottle. Tasting Notes: Nose: Fresh orchard fruits with vanilla notes and a hint of peat Palate: Sweet, floral and creamy with layers of mellow toffee Finish: Long lingering smooth finish with hints of caramel

A rounded yet spicy aroma of vanilla cookies with sweet, grainy impressions of granola and brown sugar with warming spice. It concludes with a delightful interplay of pear, nuttiness, and a hint of chocolate.
Silver · 92 pts2023iwsc.net ↗
Lovely big nose with crisp apple, golden syrup and structured cereals. Barley sugar notes develop on the palate with sumptuous honey, vanilla and layers of fruit.

Bright combination of crisp green apple and fleshy citrus with honey and brittle toffee.
Bronze2019iwsc.net ↗
Smooth start with fresh hay and orchard fruit on the nose. The palate is sweet with sponge cake and it has a round silky texture with plenty of elegant notes and a long finish.
World Whiskies Awards judges · Silver · 2025
The whisky presents a little medicinal note on the nose, evolving into fresh, salty aromas of vanilla, lemon, and red apple skin. The light palate features warm spices, pepper, and a pleasant seasoned wood character, alongside stone fruits.

Fudge and peach blossom notes on the nose, together with hints of raisins and aniseed. The palate is sweet, with toffee doughnuts, apples and peach jam. A warming ginger note leads into the finish. Overall, a very well balanced whisky.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
