Glengoyne 30 year old (2017 Edition), 46.8%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2018 ● Reviewer: Gavin Smith ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
Matured in one-third first-fill
European oak sherry butts and
two-thirds refill sherry butts. Rich
sherry notes on the nose, with vanilla, sultanas, raisins, cherry blossom, and
a hint of new leather. Initially, smooth
and very sweet orchard fruits on the palate, with cherry liqueur turning to black tea and fennel. Drying very slowly
in the lingering finish, with spicy oak. (6,000 bottles)
