2011 Berry Bros. & Rudd Glenlossie, Cask Ref. 1289, Speyside, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (57.6%)
- Scotch Whisky
Description
The nose opens with velvety whispers of dark chocolate and caramel before transitioning to ripe orchard fruits, each wrapped in a light honey glaze. An essence of vanilla weaves its way throughout, paving the path for a floral freshness and a subtle whisper of spice. Cereal and malt are revealed on the palate, cradled by peppery oak. The finish transitions into soft tannins and anise, leaving a lingering peppery note. ?

About this spirit
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.
