Product Information

With Water: A few drops of water release a lot of bright, tangy lemon on the nose and palate. I recommend a few drops of water with this one.

Nose: Starts crispy, green apple juice and hints of cinnamon and nuts. Gets mellow and very floral over time. Water brings lemon notes and meringue to the mix, and the nutty notes get salty. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect. In 1969 the distillery stopped malting its own grain and the malting floors were turned into a museum of malt whisky.The nose is light, fruity, and fragrant: apples, honey, oranges, and a malty sweetness are all there, followed by a touch of white chocolate. All in all rather pleasant and quite elegant. Nose: I have alot of drying oak with some wet long grass and a hint funky. Then I have some low notes and orange. Unfortunately, I also have some chemicals. The nose is young and a bit rough but not bad. After sipping it thhe nose shows vanilla Tried this alongside a tamadhu and a glen scotia dram, and this was probably the most "different" to what I've tasted in the past. It's been a while since I've reviewed anything on Connosr, so thought I'd start with something less taxing than the Rollercoaster... This evening I'm sipping on this little number. It's not my usual dram of choice, but I fancied something a bit more lightweight, and this is fitting the bill kind of nicely.

Taste: Green and fruity, apples and pears with some grassy notes. Crispy, sweet and watery in the form of water melons. Even mildly hot. Time and addition of water makes this dram very smooth – too light for my taste. After opening up with a drop of water, a complex sweetness, like toffee came through - moreso than the tamadhu 12, which I felt was of a less complex sweetness but felt it was less complex than the Glen Scotia's salted caramel feel. No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship is created as a result of your use of the Service.Like Dalwhinnie, Glenkinchie starts life as a (deliberately) sulfury new make, but this character falls away in time to reveal delicacy. As a 10 year old, that sulfur could still be hanging around — one reason for the switch to a 12 year age statement. The improvement is noticeable. Here are gently lifted floral notes, hints of dry grass, and crisp pear. The feel is gentle and slow in the center, while vanilla creeps into the finish. Not complex, but very pleasant.” Bought this Glenkinchie in early 2011, more than two years ago, tasted it once or twice being mildly satisfied but a little dissapointed. So much i do know, that all a malt needs to show it's true colours, is a natural quality presentation, good casks, a little air, lots of time, patience and perseverence.
