Tasting Notes

Colour

deep coppery gold

air Nose

beautiful! Another style entirely with this very nervous, ethereal cloak of sherry that’s draped over everything (to think, there’s an entire Facebook thread on Malt Maniacs about the use of the word ‘nervous’ in tasting notes - what a time to be alive!) Beyond that though there’s all these wonderful herbaceous, earthy and tobacco notes. Raisins, caramel fudge, putty, strawberry wine, cafe latte and eventually this wonderful rancio quality. Just superb! We’ve really struck ‘old Glen Grant’ now

restaurant Palate

impeccably dry, nutty, saline and rancio sherry. Green walnut liqueur, Irish coffee, natural tar, herbal extracts, old bitter ointments, dried tarragon, verbena and wormwood. The word that comes to mind here is ‘complexity’. This pitch perfect marriage of sherry, distillate and time

timer Finish

wonderfully long, thready, nervous (!!) and full of more of these saline and nutty sherry touches. Earthy, waxy and with lots of crystallised citrus peels
