- Description
- Glenglassaugh's 2011 distillation brought peat and sherry cask influence to this Highland single malt, spending six years in first fill sherry oak before being bottled by Bramble Whisky Company at a robust 53.5% ABV. The combination of smoky character and rich sherry maturation creates savoury, complex notes with hints of dried fruit and spice that move well beyond typical Highland profiles. Matured in active sherry cask rather than passive ex-bourbon, the wood influence is pronounced and warming on the palate. A bold first release from Bramble that rewards those seeking smoke and sweetness in equal measure.
