Glengoyne 1984/2021 - 36 y.o. - The Russell Cask #1549

Special features: The Glengoyne 1984/2021 is a 36-year-old single malt whisky from the Scottish Highlands region. Bottled in an elegant wooden box, it is non-smoky and presented at cask strength with an alcohol content of 50.7%. This whisky comes from a single cask bottling from Cask #1549 of the Russell Family and is characterized by its non-chillfiltered bottling. The long aging period in high-quality casks results in a complex flavor profile and remarkable depth.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The nose reveals opulent sherry aromas enveloping polished oak and barley, with notes of dark plum, fig, and raisin, as well as bright accents of orange peel. Roasted almonds and a hint of cocoa blend with vanilla and spices, creating a warm, refined sweetness that hints at decades in a cask.
• Palate: On the palate, it is silky and rich, creamy with a charming dustiness, tropical fruits, dried banana chips, and chocolate cherry.
• Finish: The finish is rich, gently sherried, and spicy.
