Glen Garioch 8 yo from the 1980s

43%

My Tasting Notes:

Nose: Quite floral, citrus fruit and a bit of malt
Palate: A floral punch for the first few seconds, then caramel, malt and citrus notes appear
Finish: Medium long
Overall: A very interesting older young whisky. A youthful edge combined with  the complexity and smoothness of “Golden Promise” barley.

Score: 86/100 – This is a collector’s bottle, expect to pay €150 or more for the bottle now
