Glenglassaugh Peated Port Wood Finish, 46%

Price: 81 Issue: Summer 2018 Reviewer: Gavin Smith Category: Single Malt Scotch

Glenglassaugh has launched its first cask-finished whiskies, matured for an unspecified period in first- fill American oak casks before finishing for up to 2 years in secondary casks. This is the pick of the quartet of expressions, with a nose of fragrant, fruity smoke, hand-rolling tobacco, and new leather. Red berry fruits and woodsmoke feature on the palate, while the finish offers gentle peat smoke, cinnamon, and black pepper. £60
