- Description
- This 1990s Glen Ord 12 Year Old represents the Highland distillery's sherried house style from an earlier era, bottled at the standard 40% ABV. Warm spice dominates—gingerbread, orange zest, nutmeg—layered with sweet toffee, vanilla, and subtle salted caramel from sherry cask influence. The palate is rounded and approachable, with sufficient age to add depth without overpower. A classic sherried Highland malt suited to those seeking nostalgic, accessible single malt.
