- Description
- Glen Garioch 2011, aged for a decade in a single cask and released by Duncan Taylor with an outturn of 583 bottles, captures the Aberdeenshire distillery at its most concentrated. The single-cask approach intensifies Glen Garioch's characteristic honey, orchard fruit, and subtle spice, layered with the wood's vanilla and oak influence accumulated over ten years. The palate is medium-bodied and slightly oily, with a clean, dry finish that keeps the spirit's light character intact despite cask strength maturation. Ideal for those seeking distillery character without excessive wood dominance, this is a snapshot of how Glen Garioch's spirit develops in restraint.
