Glen Moray Port Cask Finish 25 Year

This might be the deal of the decade. It’s not easy to find an excellent 25yo single malt for $275 in US and £147 in UK, but this is what you have here. It’s finished in Porto Cruz port pipes from Portugal, and is a rich amber in color. Incredibly smooth at 43% ABV, the thought if adding water would be sacrilegious. The port is obvious on the nose, but you are then greeted with a sweet pop on the palate that transitions nicely into a dry Port finish. I’ve found that oxidation improves a port finish by adding to the overall dryness. Be interesting to see how this changes over time.
