Grangestone Highland Single Malt Sherry Cask Finish

Nose: citrus, American oak Taste: no sherry sweetness, oak, young, little hot Finish: same as taste, short

I prefer Islay normally so find this a little boring. I actually get a lot of orange? Is that usual in the fruity sherried whiskies? I’m trying to get past it but that’s most of what I’m getting. This is smooth and easy drinking but I’m normally drinking something like a Cask Strength Laphroaig (or even a normal one) so at 40% surely it’s going to be easier than that.

Very mellow and smooth.

Nose: Sweet. Fruit. Palate: Sweet, full, a little salty Finish: Short Decent for the price, but not much more.

Orange marmalade, sherry, with a little lemon pledge and oak on the nose, oily, creamy with slightly spicy orange on the palate, the finish is medium length and slightly spicy

solid Sherry finished scotch. Nose: sweet, candied nuts, sweet dried fruit mostly dates for me. Taste: sweet on the front with Sherry dark fruit, some vanilla and grass. ends with just a bit of ginger spice and goes away fast. easy to drink. I love Balvenie DW, but for 1/2 the price this would be a easy alternaive.

Good weeknight dram. The sherry speaks to me. Really good scotch for the money.
