Launch of Glen Moray 30 year old

Probably the most elegant and sophisticated example of Glen Moray ever bottled, this specially selected 30 year old has an amazing finesse, magnificent balance and lingering softness. The bottle is beautifully presented in a hand-made wooden box, with individual scroll containing tasting notes.

With only 6,000 bottles worldwide, this is a very limited edition of Glen Moray, with exceptional elegance and softness on the nose. This is a truly exquisite example of finesse and refinement of malt flavours over time. At full strength, the delicate aroma reveals a complex mix of scented and sweet aromatics, balanced by the softness of vanilla. With water, the subtleties of this classic malt are revealed – the sweetness of golden syrup and lemon curd beneath which is discovered an 'antique' elegance reminiscent of chestnut cabinets.

The taste is a highly sophisticated flavour that is remarkably soft, sweet and smooth for its 30 years, this is quality-aged whisky at its very best. Flavours include lavender, heather, vanilla, eucalyptus and hints of tea tree oil. The oiliness progresses to a melting softness, revealing a luscious sweet middle, reminiscent of lemon sponge and cream with a good dose of vanilla.
