- Description
- Glen Garioch's 21-year-old single cask expression showcases the Highland distillery's refined character after two decades of maturation. The extended aging has developed subtle savoury notes alongside orchard fruit and cereal sweetness, with the ex-bourbon cask contributing vanilla and oak structure. Full-bodied and warming on the palate, with a lingering finish that rewards patient sipping. Best enjoyed by those seeking complexity and balance in an older Highland malt.
