Description

The Black Isle, the region (not an island, despite the name) just north of Inverness where Glen Ord distillery stands, has long been renowned for its large crops of barley.

At the time of Glen Ord’s foundation in 1838, the entirety of the Isle’s barley production was used for the production of whisky at 9 competitor distilleries, as it was the quickest and surest way of turning grain into cash.

Please note as this is a vintage whisky, conditions of bottle/label and liquid level can vary.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Initially, winy top notes rapidly evolve into fresher, sweeter plummy fruits offset by zesty, oily orange peel followed by aromas of rich caramel toffees.

Palate: Immediate, smooth, and cooling. Subtly coating, with a clever balance of gentle fruit tartness (preserved plums) and gingery, rich, sweet malt. Becoming gradually lighter and cleaner on the palate with faint, appetising late notes of toasted coconut.

Finish: A beautiful balance of lightly cleansing fruit notes and gingery toasted maltiness; a smooth texture, like caramel toffees or good chocolate slowly melting on the tongue. Late notes of cocoa and cool mint.
