Review by Glen Elgin

« This review is also available in Dutch »
Colour

Full gold.

Nose

Sweet. Almonds, or maybe marzipan? Some orange juice. Perhaps a trace of sawn wood. With water, Speyside esters, nut oil and buttery fat, prawn crackers, traces of fresh pears; a whiff of smoke or steam; dense.

Palate

Pleasant mouthfeel; sweetish, then dryish, with some acidity between; all well balanced.

Finish

Dryish, balanced finish

Note

Tangerine fruitiness is the hand-crafted Glen Elgin’s “signature”, born of long and precise fermentation. An easily accessible single malt with Speyside fruit and sweetness.
