It is bottled at 46% ABV, the higher strength used for the company's Vintage range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Lost Distillery Company researches Scotland's silent distilleries, studying their barley, water, stills and casks, and then blends malt whiskies to recreate what their spirit might have tasted like. Stratheden is one of these lost names, and the Vintage expression uses older whiskies than the company's Classic range, which is bottled at 43%.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nose is dense, leathery, spicy and fruity, with dried fruit cake, Madeira cake with maraschino cherries and tinned pears, plus pastry, hard toffee and sweet tobacco.
