Glen Elgin 18 Year Old 2017 Special Release Description
Hamish Says...
Our Hamish has had a sip and jotted down his thoughts.
Nose: vanilla toffee gives way to leafy, herbal notes before candied nuts, polished oak and orchard fruits.
Palate:smooth and very sweet, honey and honeycomb is followed by apples and oaky spice.
Finish: medium and dry with oak fading to leave brown sugar and a touch of aniseed.
