Glen Scotia 15 year old 46%
Tasting Note
American Oak
Re- Tasted: Sept 2016
The nose is a little fresher than the Double Cask given the lack of sherry casks. This also releases more of the salt, malt and fish oils. There is a touch of raisinated fruit and burnt wood in the background and with time some smoky, meaty, balsamic and tarry notes appear.
The palate is crisp, salty and malty with hints of raisins and ginger. The freshness continues onto the middle, where it is joined by a touch of treacle, smoke and baked fruit. Long and malty with hints of violets, salt and baked fruit. In fact the finish is very salty with a touch of dark chocolate.
