2011 Berry Bros. & Rudd Glen Garioch, Cask Ref. 1100001331, Highland, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (57.4%)

Description

The rugged, heather-swept hills of the Highlands meet the vineyards of Pauillac. The french oak cask lends notes of blackcurrant, cedar and a hint of graphite to the whisky’s inherently malty backbone. The palate unfolds with dried fruits, spicy oak and the dark chocolate richness of a well-aged Bordeaux. The finish is enduring, marked by fruity and earthy undertones.?

About this spirit

Glen Garioch Distillery, Highlands

Glen Garioch distillery is one of the oldest in Scotland, having been founded in 1798. This was the heartland of the northern Picts, and the district has the greatest concentration of carved stones and Pictish monuments in Scotland. It is named after the valley of the Garioch, the ‘Granary of Aberdeenshire’, where the finest Scottish barley can be grown thanks to the mid climate of plentiful sunshine and not too much rain. It was definitely working during the late 18th century under Thomas Simpson, but Historic Scotland lists its four-storey Georgian alt barn and twin pagoda chimneys c. 1780. It was extended to three stills in 1973 and has suffered several periods of closure, most recently in the mid-1990s. To the delight of many, this charming distillery in the Aberdeenshire market town of Old Meldrum was refurbished and re-opened again in 1997.

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.
