This Glen Moray 12 Year Old is one of a series of tins depicting the Highland Regiments of Scotland, this one is of the The Argyll And Sutherland Highlanders.
Released in the early 1990's in a lovely metal tin with full detailed artwork, bottled at 40%.
A fantastically rare antique from an amazing distillery, this one one for any collectors collection.
Please note as this is a vintage whisky, conditions of bottle/label and liquid level can vary.
Nose: Big on vanilla and honey and cereal grains. Honey Smacks, actually. The scent of fresh cut grass lingers somewhere beneath all the sweetness.
Palate: On the palate, it's lighter than the nose suggests. Crisp and fruity with white chocolate, toffee. Softly malty with some floral character.
Finish: Short and fruity. It's a solid baseline Speyside, not overly complex, and with an ABV that is well-suited for enjoying the whisky neat.
Jim Murray has scored this Glen Moray 12 Year Old Argyll and Sutherland 90/100 in his 2015 Whisky Bible.
'I have always regarded this as the measuring stick by which all other malty and clean speysiders should be tried and tested'.
