Glenkinchie's Distillers Edition bottlings feature whisky from the Lowland distillery finished in casks that previously held Amontillado Sherry. This one was distilled in 2004 and allowed to age until 2016. A Lowland whisky that’s something of a rarity., Glenkinchie Distillers Edition works best neat.
TASTING NOTES | NOSE: Brisk, sharp and brittle. An excellent Nose; astonishing balance and complexity between sweet and dry. The slightly firmer, drier notes are provided by very soft vanillins and crisp grape; the sweeter, nuttier ones by the malted barley and possibly the Spanish oak.
TASTE: Essentially dry following a very early burst of biscuity-sweetness. Enormous malt character, the more pronounced as it can be measured against the thin fruitiness of the grape. FINISH: A very long offering of oak. Remains dry with very faint peppery notes - again, oak induced - spicing things up a little. Some very late caramel softens things down, though - especially when the glass has warmed in the hand. OVERALL: An intriguing whisky. Fascinating and very enjoyable. Balanced sweet and dry Nose, enormous malt palate and long oaky, dry Finish - the second maturation perfectly develops Glenkinchie’s character. |
