Description: Octaves Batch 2 Peated
Distillery: Glenglassaugh
Region: Highland
Vintage: -
Year Bottled: -
For the second Batch of Glenglassaugh Octaves named, 'Peated', the distillery has used octave casks made from resized bourbon, Port and Oloroso sherry casks.
This expression is one of the small number of octave casks to be bottled following careful selection from Master Blender, Rachel Barrie, composed of Glenglassaugh peated malt matured in Bourbon, Port and Oloroso Sherry Cask Octaves.
The result is an expression with a harmonious marriage of sweet notes and fruit with savoury smoke, spiced by the sea.
Bottled at 44% ABV, non chill filtered and natural in colour.
Whiskey fun has scored this Glenglassaugh Octaves Peated Batch 2 80/100 overall on their site through customer recommendations.
Serge describes this whiskey as ‘it’s not that I’m a peat head (I can hear you!), but the young distillate offered more resistance to the octaves, and the oak’s grassy/gingery side seems to be better integrated. Nice notes of lemongrass too, but the medicinal side has been lost on the palate.’
