Glengoyne, 21-Year-Old, Highland, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (43%)

Description

This is a beautiful example of Glengoyne’s elegant spirit intertwining with rich oak. Assuredly replete with fruit cake and bakery notes on the nose, the palate is expansive and cushioned with dried apricots, membrillo quince paste and kumquat. The finish follows the above fruit and pastry platter and is joined by touches of oak and milk chocolate. This is a gently satisfying dram for whiling away an evening listening to something sonorous featuring a cello.

Barley

Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
