Tasting Notes

Indulge in a vibrant symphony of tropical delights with the Glenlossie 14 Year Old 2008 - Benchmark. The moment you uncork this exquisite single malt, a burst of mango and pineapple notes envelops your senses, intertwined with the sweetness of honey and the delicate fragrance of citrus blossoms. As you savor the first sip, a zesty and oily citrus peel tang awakens your palate, accompanied by luscious banana and melon flavors, while a dusting of cinnamon adds a warm and comforting embrace. The finish lingers with a harmonious blend of baking spices, buttery oak, and caramel, leaving a delightfully mellow and satisfying aftertaste. Masterfully crafted by Murray McDavid, this whisky spent 14 years maturing, first in bourbon hogsheads and then finished in French oak barriques previously holding the sweet nectar of Sauternes wine, imparting a unique depth and complexity to its character.
