Glen Moray Single Malt Whisky Tasting Notes

'Shortbread, butterscotch and lemongrass'

Colour:- Light gold.

Nose:- At full strength, the aroma is fragrant and lightly drying with warming malty notes. The first impression is of butterscotch and shortbread with fresh herbal/grassy notes. Lemon curd and meringue are discovered in the background.

With water, malt and spices combine to reveal oatmeal with a hint of freshly ground black pepper. Lemongrass, tea-tree oil and heather aromatics give the whisky a fragrance throughout.

Taste:- The mouthfeel is lightly spiced with a warming and gently mouth watering effect. Malty toffee sweetness is present throughout with blackcurrants and a fragrant citrus lemongrass tang.

Finish:- Shortbread, fresh herbal notes (lemongrass) and the sweet spiciness of ginger marmalade.
