Glengoyne 12 yo Cask Strength

by Oliver Klimek on February 8, 2010

Buy at the Whisky Exchange

57.2%

My Tasting Notes:

Color: Dark gold
Nose: Not very strong, raisins, citrus, a hint of tea
Palate: Cocoa, caramel, faint oranges, quite spicy
Finish: Medium long, spicy
Overall: The wood spicyness is a bit too dominant for my taste, it takes quite a bit of water to soften it down. But still quite a nice dram.

Score: 81/100 – Price Tag $$$$$ – Value for your Money $$$$$

Glengoyne 1997/2009 Sherry Butt

by Oliver Klimek on October 18, 2009

Malts of Scotland – 57.2%

My Tasting Note:

Nose: A bit weak, tobacco, cassis, slightly “dusty”
Palate: Sweet, caramel, cocoa, various spice, a hint of raisins
Finish: Medium long and dry
Overall: I was a little disappointed with this one. It’s hard to pin it down, but somehow it lacks “depth”. But I am sure that some will find it excellent, it’s just not quite my taste.

Score: 82/100 – Price Tag $$$$$ – Value for your Money $$$$$
