Glen Scotia Cask Scotch 750ml
| Description: | Our Double Cask is matured in our finest oak barrels then finished in a combination of first fill bourbon barrels followed by time in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks to produce this outstanding malt whisky that provides the perfect balance of rich spicy fruits, overlaid with the characteristic sea spray and vanilla oak finish for which the house of Glen Scotia is famous. Nose. Amber. Very sweet. Initially it is all creme caramel, caramelised fruit sugars, wood sugar, toffee and fudge before some apple and peach come through. In time a charred note of bourbon with a pleasing dusty dryness. Has some power. Palate. Sweet start and quite fat and though the alcohol gives a little tongue-tingling buzz the result is a good mid-palate weight. The dry distillery character is there still, but there is now depth to counter. Water slightly dismantles the different elements, but adds some dried mint. Finish. Deep and dark. Region Description. \"Single Malt Scotch\" is generally associated with the higher end Scotch whiskeys, meaning its origin comes from one distillery and distilled in a pot still. The malt grain used is always barley in the case of a single malt Scotch. |
