Product description

Product description
The 12-year-old Glenglassaugh is the flagship of the coastal distillery's newly designed core range and has been matured in a combination of bourbon, sherry and red wine casks. The Single Malt reflects Glenglassaugh's maritime distillery character.
The Glenglassaugh Distillery is located at the eastern end of Sandend Bay in Aberdeenshire, Scotland and was founded in 1875 by Col. James Moir. In 1892 Glenglassaugh was sold to Highland Distillers. Today, the distillery belongs to the Brown-Forman Group, which is responsible for brands such as Jack Daniel's and Glendronach, among others.

Aroma: Sweet Fruit Vanilla

Geschmack: Sweet Sherry Fruit Nuts

Aroma: Almonds Spices Peach Vanilla Barley Floral

Geschmack: Nuts Spices Caramel Oak Heather

Abgang: Coffee Oak Nuts Cake

Kommentar: Für 12 Jahre durch die 3 verschiedenen Fässer sehr komplex. Alle 3 Fässer lassen sich in Aroma und Geschmack sehr gut aufschlüsseln. Tolle Note von gebrannter Mandel und Kaffee im Abgang. Starker Antritt der Eiche, kommt vermutlich von den Fässern aus europäischer Eiche.

Aroma:

Geschmack: Fruit Cake Maritime Notes Floral

Abgang: Nachhaltig

Kommentar: Das offensichtliche Ziel der Brennerei, eine neue Abfüllung zu kreieren, die im Single Malt-Hauptsegment der 12-jährigen als hochwertig und mit eigenständigem Geschmacksprofil wahrgenommen wird, ist voll aufgegangen und insofern eine absolute Bereicherung. Für Freunde von maritim ausgerichteten Whiskys ist die Bereicherung nochmals größer.
Die Reifung in drei (oder mehr) verschiedenen Holzarten empfinde ich in der Mehrzahl der mir bekannten Fälle als störend (z.B. Benriach Twelve), hier jedoch tatsächlich als Gewinn.

Aroma: Fruit Sherry

Geschmack: Salt Fruit Nuts Sherry

Abgang: Spices Fruit

Kommentar: Angenehm weich zu trinken mit einem Sherry Geschmack, der nicht aufdringlich ist. Trotzdem Würzig und Fruchtig.
