Glen Mhor

Glen Mhor Distillery
Glen Mhor's history is very much tied up with its neighbour Glen Albyn.  It was established in Inverness in1892 by John MacKinlay and John Birnie, a former distillery manager at Glen Albyn who had left in a fit of pique after being refused a share in the distillery by owners Gregory & Co.  The name (pronounced Glen Vawr) means 'Great Glen' and production began in 1894.

Tasting Notes:

Producer's Tasting Notes

Nose: The first impression is sweet, almond-like with a trace of coconut. Like Scotch pancakes, with a light mintiness behind. Later there are fleeting scents of orange peel and very ripe gooseberries. Water introduces fresh fruits, even a trace of fresh strawberry jam, while retaining the original aromas.
 
Body: Lightly oily. Citrus zest.

Palate: Fresh and centre-palate, with a soft mouthfeel; perhaps not quite as sweet as the nose suggests but still pleasantly sweet, with a trace of dry peat. Lemon juice and sugar on a breakfast pancake, with a surprising white-pepperiness (in flavour and effect). Dry overall.

Finish: A twist of lemon peel (acid drops!) in the medium length finish. Peppermint tea. Soothing.
