Glen Garioch 17 Year Old (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)
Glen Garioch
Tasting Notes
This 17-year-old Glen Garioch single malt whisky, bottled by the unconventional That Boutique-y Whisky Company, offers a delightful journey through a pastry shop's fragrant aromas and flavors. The nose greets you with the enticing scents of apricot-filled pastries and lemon cheesecake, accompanied by warming cinnamon notes that beckon you to take a sip. On the palate, the oily walnut and marzipan flavors envelop your taste buds, while cinnamon lingers, subtly complemented by hints of nutmeg and ginger. The finish is a delightful interplay of sponge cake, white grapes, orange peel, and a refreshing mint note, leaving you with a lingering desire for another dram. The quirky label depicts a greenhouse warmed by the distillery's still waste heat, adding a touch of whimsy to this exceptional whisky.
