Glenkinchie is celebrated as a light and delicate whisky, ideal for the sophisticated connoisseur who enjoys a pre-dinner drink. It’s light character is born from its distillation in some of Scotland’s largest stills; finished in Amontillado casks, resulting in a balance of sweet and dry, with a complex and malty depth in this Lowland whisky.

TASTING NOTES
APPEARANCE
Deep Amber.
NOSE
Brisk and brittle. Complex and excellent; astonishing balance between sweet and dry. Firmer, drier notes from soft and crisp grape; sweeter, nuttier ones from malted barley and cask wood.
TASTE
Dry, after early biscuit sweetness. Enormous malt character contrasts with thin fruitiness of the grape.
FINISH
Very long, dry, oaky. Very faint peppery notes add spice.
