Glen Moray Elgin Classic Port Cask Finish

I was already somewhat a fan of the Glen Moray Elgin Classic as a non-peated, non-sherried Scotch that was pretty tasty and at a moderate price. The port finish adds another softer, slightly sweeter accent to this profile. I like it. It is not very complex and does not require much thought; but it is tasty and a treat at $23.

Nose, floral honey caramel smells really nice Pallet, spicy note kicking in you can also tasty hint of Oak caramel and honey flavour continues. You can surely taste the ex bourbon cask. Short finish honey and caramel faded fast with a little bit of bitterness. Overall a good pinky color whisky that is light on your wallet, not for people who likes heavier flavour.

★★★★ Merci mon frère! Alors que la soirée est sérieusement avancé et que les feux d'artifices se terminent, mon frère me propose ce délicieux Glen Moray vieilli dans des fûts de porto. J'ai un faible pour Glen Moray puisque c'est la première distillerie que j'ai visité. Encore une succulent produit à faible prix. On aime ça. On passe go et on réclame 200$.

Meh. Definitely a mixer, not a sipper. Just not sure what I would mix this with yet?

Sort of light lactic warming start with an alcohol finish. It’s smooth but doesn’t really leave a particular impression.
