Glen Moray Elgin Classic Sherry Cask Finish

mid pep, a little acidicity 1 strong berries, grape flavors, sharpness 1 bitterness 1 1

Sweet, bright, light dry fruit, sweet dry sherry notes.

Glen Moray is a decent value line of SM. This sherry cask finish kicks it up just a smidge and makes for an enjoyable pour. Nose is light red fruit and malt with some oaky barrel. Nothing crazy depth wise almost blend like but pleasant. Palate is malty oak with gentle sherry influence, no bomb here. Little bit of vanilla and some wispy smoke/char. Finish is dry tannins with a spray of wine and malt. Strays into bitter territory with water so be careful. Amazing this is not but for the $$ cant complain. Straightforward malt with a hint of sherry for sipping without thought or heavy pours without a care of cost. Scotch snobs need not bother but value guys go for it. Monkey Shoulder is better as is Naked malt but this is drier finish if thats your thing.....82/100.....totally drinkable if a sherry fan but nothing special
