Macaloney's Caledonian Glenloy

To start, I'm a neophyte, however on the nose, I get a lot of vanilla and sweetness. Tasting like a fine desert, very sweet and smooth maybe with a bit of spice I can't identify. Medium longevity on the palat, with a lasting sweetness. I will savour this whiskey as a treat to start the evening. Very nice.

Outstanding pour. Very well balanced. The trio of casks balances very well with notes of dark fruit, vanilla, coconut, toffee, and cacao.

Full of flavour, complex, and delicious. The nose included vanilla, dried apricots, a bit of candied almonds and some baking spices... and much more! The Sherry influence was noticeable but the dram was nonetheless very balanced. Creamy mouthfeel, sweet, a touch of new oak, and a hint of salt from the sea air. Medium, clean finish and a lingering sensation of nostalgia, wishing you could have the experience one more time, followed by a burst of ecstasy as you realize there is more in the glass! (Till the bottles empty, then you go buy more.)

One of my favourites of the new Macaloney's Caledonian line. Sherry notes with fruit cake, oak, vanilla, malt. Tons of flavour, medium finish.
