Tasting Notes

"This first chapter has a slight dirtiness/metallic aroma usually not associated with Glengoyne. There's more though, with a hint of sultanas and cocoa powder, as well as toasted bread, overripe apple parts, and sweet apple cider. The palate is somewhat sour, with pickled lemon, and a slight bitterness as well. A very noticeable wood influence. Slightly oily mouthfeel, which is nice, as well as burnt caramel and marzipan. Apparently this matured in first-fill oloroso sherry casks, but the flavor profile doesn't seem to totally reflect this."
