Customer Rating
“For a young whisky, this is a great surprise. It is full of fruity flavours and a nice rich mouthfeel. Looking forward to see how their other whiskies mature.”

Description
A rather exciting arrival here, it's the second-ever single malt whisky from the community-owned GlenWyvis distillery, located in the valley of Ben Wyvis mountain in the Scottish Highlands! Sustainably distilled in 2018 from locally grown Concerto barley, this single malt was then filled into a selection of ex-Tennessee whiskey barrels, oloroso sherry hogsheads, and refill Scotch whisky casks to mature. A patient wait followed, whilst the new make rested and evolved into this extremely impressive young Scotch, bottled up in 2022.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Dense summer fruits open the way, with delicately floral honey and ripe plum.
Palate
Buttery malt, with crumbly fudge and vanilla pod, followed by green apple peel, and pangs of peppercorn.
Finish
Heavy oak char, rich, silky caramel, a sprinkle of bitter cacao, and young orchard fruit.
