Vintage Malt Whisky 'Glenalmond'⁣

Bottled at: 40% ⁣⁣⁣⁣

Cask Type:⁣ Sherry and Bourbon casks.⁣⁣

@vintagemaltwhisky say "To produce Glenalmond we have chosen only the best malts from a small group of Scotland’s finest malt whisky distilleries. Carefully placed together in a vatting and left until the right marriage of flavours is achieved, the result can only be described as perfection."⁣⁣

My tasting notes 📝⁣⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣⁣Nose. Malt, Caramel, Spice and Citrus.⁣⁣

Palate. Sherry, Custard, Fruit and Toffee.⁣⁣

Finish. Dried Fruit with Honey, Jam and Nuts⁣⁣

This is mostly malty although some sweetness from caramel was a welcomed accumulation. The nose then tingles from a spicy cinnamon scent. A sharpness cuts through now with a clean and fresh citrusy lemon aroma.⁣⁣⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣⁣The palate has a velvety mouthfeel that is full of sweetness. Some sweet sherry and custard give the palate an evocative feel. Fruity apple notes work well with very satisfying toffee flavours driving ahead.⁣⁣

⁣⁣⁣⁣The finish is where you start to feel more dried fruit flavours, The medium to long finish has a silky vibe across-the-board which includes seductive honey notes. There's also some jammy flavours, then the tasting finished with some light nuts.⁣⁣⁣⁣

My opinion 🗣 - A really pleasant and easy sipping highland whisky with a decent flavour profile.
