The highly acclaimed First Release of Glen Moray Mountain Oak Malt was bottled in 2003. In 2007, with over three years of further maturation in Warehouse One, the remaining toasted and charred casks filled in 1991 have been bottled as Mountain Oak Malt The Final Relase, creating a sublime, spicy, warming and richly sweet Glen Moray single malt. Every one of the 1158 bottles has been hand signed and numbered by Graham Coull, Distillery Manager.
Deep amber.
Wonderful toffee sweetness of tablet and melt in the mouth fudge at full strength. The sweet creamy theme continues with vanilla ice cream, chocolate truffles and butterballs coated in sugar. Rich spice notes of ground nutmeg and cinnamon sticks are discovered behind the sweetness, with a trace of freshly sawn wood and just a hint of mint.
Adding water takes you back to the sweet shops of your childhood with liquorice laces, cinnamon and aniseed balls, sherbet, pineapple cubes and ice cream soda. After this initial confectionary sweetness, fruity aromas of cherries, blueberries and blackcurrants emerge along with fruit and nut chocolate, spiced orange peel and pencil sharpenings.
Spicy, warming and richly sweet with the oiliness of glacé cherries coating the palate initially, before the fruit discovered on the nose – pears, pineapples, cherries and blueberries becomes apparent now topped with a dusting of spiced cocoa powder. Sweet flavours of vanilla custard and fudge wrapped in chocolate glide over the palate as hazelnuts, pistachios and warming nutmeg and ginger spice lingers in the background.
Long, sweet and spicy leaving nutmeg, cinnamon and pistachio nuts.
