Glengoyne's distinctive style carries on improving with age. The same elements are present at 17 years old as they were at 10, only now the balance has artfully changed. A more concentrated, equally well-balanced palate of flavours has emerged, though it still retains the same clean, delicate taste as the 10 Years Old.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: Medium gold with a rich glow
Nose: Some sherry, Christmas pudding. Plenty of fruit - raisins, ripe apples and tinned oranges in syrup
Mouthfeel: Rich, mouth-coating
Initial taste: Malty, treacle, slightly nutty. Orange peel, apple compot. Rich oak.
After Water: Pear Drops and vanilla
Finish: Long and rich, with spicy oak
Comments: Multi award winning dram. One of the greats. Possibly the best pound for pound dram on the market.
