TASTING NOTES
NOSE: Candy necklaces and Smarties at first sniff with developing notes of stone fruits, almonds, and vanilla custard. In time there’s buttered brioche bread and café au lait.
PALATE: Delightfully oily with another round of vanilla custard and stone fruits accompanied by toasted wholewheat toast, warm granola, and candied ginger.
FINISH: Moderate length with a lingering sweetness. The barley, vanilla custard, and stone fruit notes remain.
From the Brand: Glen Spey is a distillery that's rarely on anyone's radar though we aim to change that! Owned by Diageo, the Glen Spey Distillery is known for making a very nutty style of spirit and that spirit character is front and center in this release. In fact, the final 7 years of maturation being in 1st Fill Bourbon only helps to amplify that delicious nutty characteristic while adding layers of vanilla custard and loads of stone fruits. You'd be right to put this cask and the Glen Spey Distillery fully on your radar!
