Glen Garioch 1995
Country: Scotland
Region: Highlands
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 55.3%
Score: 89 Points
This single malt comes from some of the final whisky produced before Glen Garioch shut down in 1995 for nearly two years of renovations, which included the end of using peated malt at the distillery. The nose has the good smokiness associated with older Glen Gariochs balanced with fruity notes of grilled apple slices with melted caramel, banana, brown sugar, vanilla, and toasted oak. The taste is thick, oily, and pungent with a mild peatiness, cinnamon, and clove balanced by grilled apples and peach slices, caramel candy, and brown sugar. The finish is long and smoky. Very nice!
