Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-brown with a burnished mahogany glow.
Nose
Sherry-influenced on the nose: rich cocoa, clove and cinnamon wrapped in dark vanilla. A Christmas cake core with raisin, candied orange peel and a whisper of dark rum, hinting at the depth to come.
Palate
On the palate, this 21-year-old Glengoyne coats with a glossy, oily mouthfeel. Rich cocoa and dark vanilla mingle with clove and cinnamon, unfolding Christmas cake notes of raisin and candied orange peel. A honeyed sweetness threads the fruit as sherry depth lingers into the finish. The long, cinnamon-spiced finale sits with warm oak and refined balance.
Finish
Long, cinnamon-infused and richly spiced, this finish lingers with Christmas cake notes of raisin, candied orange peel and dark vanilla. An oily mouthfeel coats the palate as cocoa and clove linger, with a final whisper of dark rum fading into warm sherried sweetness.
