About this deal

Neat: Spicy entrance on the palate, with a subtle woodiness that enhances the velvety mouthfeel. While the pineapple note is less prominent than on the nose, it’s still a pleasant citrusy presence. The taste evolves to salted caramel and a generous amount of pepper, followed by subtle hints of vanilla and honey. There’s also a slight tartness of grapefruit and green apple, indicating a touch of youthful character. With water: When a few drops are added, the nose takes on a new dimension. The aroma becomes richer and creamier, with a buttery note and a fresh pastry scent. Palate:

We may sell, license, transfer, assign or in any other way dispose of the Service (including Members) to any third party without any notification to you, e.g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets.I first encountered the Glenglassaugh Revival about 5 years ago. On first impression I found the nose to have a youthful rawness, not unlike new make spirit, that I found a little off-putting. Revisiting it now, some years since my last encounter, I have found it to be altogether more developed. Still a young malt, but more polished than I remember. An interesting dram that has felt the impact of some decent casks and been bottled in such a way that its relative youth works for it, rather than against it. Glenglassaugh 'Revival' is the first widely-available single malt from the 'new' distillery and was matured in both first and refill casks and finished in first-fill oloroso sherry butts for a period of six months. Non chill filtered.

The 50.5% ABV bottling has an aroma of ‘soft buttery vanilla ice cream drenched in tropical fruit, with chocolate and a touch of sea salt’. Flavours of salted caramel follow on the palate with hints of pineapple, cherry and grapefruit. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect.

With water: When a little water is added, the scent leans towards orange, and the wine-like notes become more subdued. Palate: Unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise, your use of and membership to the Service are exclusively governed by Dutch law. We shall first try to settle any dispute over a dram of whisky. Disputes that cannot be settled over multiple drams of whisky shall be solely submitted to the court of Amsterdam, The Netherlands unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise. Eventually, in 2011, a whisky appeared – Revival, the first spirit to be distilled at Glenglassaugh in more than 25 years. It wasn’t enough to keep things going, however, and in 2013 a seasoned player stepped in: The Benriach Company. The Benriach Company
