Glenkinchie, renowned for its light and delicate character, is a perfect choice for the sophisticated connoisseur seeking a pre-dinner drink. Its lightness is a result of its distillation in some of Scotland’s largest stills, followed by a finish in Amontillado casks. This combination creates a harmonious balance of sweetness and dryness, complemented by a complex and malty characteristic of Lowland whisky.
Available in a 700ml bottle, at 43% abv.
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.
