A 42% bottling of 30 year old single malt Scotch whisky from Glenglassaugh, a Highland distillery on the coast. As with the previous release it's presented in a beautiful teardrop decanter.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Coffee and toffee, citrus, fruit cake, fruit salad and spice.
Dark chocolate, ginger, plenty of stewed golden fruits supported by oak.
Nutty and lasting.
Bought a sample of this, and I found (as a whiskey experienced, yet scotch inexperienced person) this incredibly smooth, perfectly sweet and buttery. Such a well balanced dram. For a 30 yr old spirit that is lesser known, I think that this might be a good deal. I am sure that there are others perhaps that are fantastic, I would expect they would cost more than this one.
Disappointing
I bought this for my husband as a 30th wedding anniversary gift, and he really enjoyed it! He usually drinks Macallan, but the 30 year Macallan from our local ABC store was over 3k. This was a wonderful substitute and very affordable!
For the age range and tasting notes I expected better. There is a reason this is an affordable 30yr.
