Glen Scotia Victoriana

Nose: Sweat, greasy machinery, leather, tannins, mildew on dirty rags, my dads musty basement, old dusty books, slight honey, vanilla, smoke, funk Palette: light smoke, old books, sawdust, deep honey notes, vanilla, citrus peels, apples, sweaty clothes, raisins Finish: Long, full bodied, sourdough bread, creamy, vanilla, honey, moldy wood, Home Depot wood section I know my description may be off putting but this is one unique and incredible whisky. Possibly my favorite out of my Glen scotia collection (15,16,18, and this). The smell of old books in an abandoned library and greasy machinery teleports me for the Victorian era! Don’t skip on this campbell town funk!

Oaky taste

Lovely but heavy

When nosing and tasting neat you can feel the cask strength hotness. Musk, vanilla and caramel are noticeable in the nose, with chocolate and toffee in the tasting, along with leathery and malt flavors. I prefer drinking this with ice or water to temper down the alcohol, and the result is a better rounded whiskey. The finish on this one is amazing, and it lasts for a while.

Salty finish. :-) Caramel and smooth

Nice......
