Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with coppery highlights and a warm, honeyed glow.
Nose
Fresh orchard fruit—apple and pear—joins honeyed malt, mellowed by polished oak. Sherry influence reveals itself as dried apricot, raisin and almond, with a gentle spice and a waxy, refined elegance that lingers on the nose.
Palate
Silky and refined on the palate, Glenlossie Connoisseurs Choice presents a gentle sherried sweetness with dried fruit—fig, raisin—intertwined with honeyed malt and almond. Subtle orange zest and spice lift the midpalate, while polished oak provides structure. The finish is long, warm, and nutty, with cocoa-tinted echoes that linger elegantly.
Finish
An elegantly long finish that coats the palate with soft malt and subtle sweetness. Orchard fruit and almond give way to warm toffee, a touch of vanilla, and gentle oak, drying into a refined, lingering spice.
