Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

  • Tasting Notes by Rocky

    • Nose

      Rich and pronounced fresh-fruit notes: apple, pineapple and papaya, with malt and toffee in the background, along with a hint of cinnamon.

    • Palate

      The richness continues, but with the fruit notes of apple and pineapple superseded by prominent notes of nut and spice: hazelnut, nutmeg and clove.

    • Finish

      Medium to long, with the fruit and nut slowly dissipating to leave the spicy flavours.

    • Comment

      A rich and spicy whisky, with the added complexity that the additional year’s maturation gives, compared to its predecessor. It may not be priced in the everyday whisky bracket, but its approachability and fullness of flavour mean it’s not a whisky that should only be enjoyed on special occasions.

  • Producer's Notes

    • Appearance

      Medium gold with a rich glow.

    • Nose

      Awash with red apple, ripe melon and fresh banana. Heavenly and well rounded, it drifts into hot porridge topped with brown sugar.

    • Initial taste

      Full bodied, round and rich. At first macerated fruits, marzipan and walnuts; then warm spices, dry cocoa and lingering Seville marmalade.

    • Finish

      Long, warm and dry.

    • Comments

      Remarkable depth. Each glass unveils more layers.

    Helen Carkner,

    I have indeed tasted this scotch, bought when we visited the Glengoyne distillery in July 2022. We had enjoyed the tour, and went above our usual price point to buy a bottle of the 18. Imagine my disappointment upon opening it with great anticipation when we returned home to Montréal, Canada, and discovering that the first and predominant taste was that of mildew. Perhaps a faulty cask?

    RBW,

    Pretty bland for an 18yo.Thought the 12yo was just as good.Certainly not worth the inflated price!

    Excellent, smooth with great aftertaste. Toured the distillery while in Scotland – great fun!
