Glendronach - Peated Port Wood Whisky 70CL
$138.55 price per bottle
The GlenDronach Peated Port Wood, is inspired by the import of casked Port into Scotland in the 19th century. Peated Port Wood is made using malted barley that has been dried in the ?old style?, using Highland peat, and the whisky has undergone its final maturation in Port pipes from the Douro Valley in Portugal. Rachel Barrie, whisky maker at The GlenDronach, said: ?The GlenDronach Peated Port Wood may be considered a surprising expression from this distillery but is in keeping with historical styles. ? She continued: ?Peat imbues the spirit with regional notes of wood smoke and smouldering charcoal, layered over The GlenDronach?s archetypal fruitiness. ? Bottled at 46% abv, The GlenDronach Peated Port Wood is non-chill-filtered. It is ?dark amber with a ruby heart? and the palate is said to have notes of ?tart cranberry juice with waves of Highland smoke, rich, stewed barley and lingering, smouldering charcoal?. 8. 9/10 Whisky Magazine recommended Official Tasting Notes Nose - Wild strawberries dusted with cinnamon sugar, filled with sweet wood smoke. A warming hint of black pepper and a sprig of mint appear in the back note. Palate - Crisp, tart cranberry juice, flooded with waves of Highland smoke, sweetens to red berry compote, with rich, stewed barley. Finish - Lingering, smouldering charcoal. Brilliant stuff, nicely balanced between what seems like a cask finish and a great peat level.
