Description
Glen Moray’s story begins as the Elgin West Brewery, which had made local ales since 1830, has been transformed into the whisky distillery we know so well today. Made entirely from local barley, that new make spirit is filled into an unusually wide variety of casks for the time, including Marsala wine casks and sherry casks.
It has been more than 120 years since the brand first began crafting Glen Moray in the heart of Speyside. Its rich heritage continues to inspire their single malt Scotch whisky today.
The 15 Year Old marries two very different cask types in one outstanding dram. With half spending it’s life in American oak embodying Glen Moray’s classic style, the other half maturing in oloroso sherry casks resplendent with rich spice, bringing their contrasting styles together to craft intensely complex layers. With tastes of dried fruits, dark chocolate and spice, amplified by age, this Scotch whisky is a perfect treat for single malt lovers eager to discover more.
Bottled at 40% ABV.
TO THE EYES
Copper.
TO THE NOSE
Sherried oak and butter toffee. Hints of dark chocolate and mixed spice.
TO THE PALATE
Full-bodied finely-oaked wine flavours, spiced dark chocolate and a hint of smoke.
TO THE END
The oak lingers as the dried fruit sweetness gradually fades. A finish which is intense and satisfying.
