Glen Garioch 15 Year Sherry Cask Matured

Zware jongen, prettig

Rund, fruktig lite russin

Nose - (w/o water) Sweet "meaty" sherry sweetness, rich dark cherries, dark apple/pear juice, cranberry juice (w/ water) Opens up a bit more, still meaty sherry, but seems a bit more "bright" Taste - (w/o water) Dark dried stone fruits, ginger spice/heat, dried cranberries, weird fruity bitterness, wet tobacco, orange pith bitter (w/ water) Opens up the dram a bit more, flavors "pop" more, brighter flavors and less dark fruit syrupy sweet, still has the "meaty" sweet sweetness Finish - (w/o water) Lingering sweet stone fruits, lingering ginger heat, light fruity bitterness (w/ water) Lingering dried cranberry, dried cherry sweet, light fruity bitterness remains Score - 82/100 Final Thoughts - This was quite interesting in that I get this sort of fruity/savory meaty sweet from this. Similar to Dalmore, but more pleasant. This for me is more on the sweet side and leans more towards a dessert dram. Water does wonders for this dram & opens it up quite a bit. Would I drink it if offered? - Yes Would I specifically order it? - No Would I buy a bottle? - No

An excellent whisky with a huge sherry influence.

Caramel molasses nose. Smooth vanilla palate with a crisp Spivey finish

Color: dark amber Nose: cinnamon Taste: sweet Finish: long warm and dry The nose is a bit strange... but the finish is really good!
