Glenglassaugh Octaves Classic
Sold out
£54.40
Fully matured in an Octave cask, this special Glenglassaugh release is one of two bottlings released by the distillery in June 2016. Maturing whisky in a smaller cask allows more contact with the wood, developing and ageing the whisky a lot quicker.

Glenglassaugh Octaves Classic Official Tasting Notes
Colour: Rich golden amber.
Nose: An abundance of sweet shop characteristics. Sherbet and candy apples with a gentle warmth of white pepper and cinnamon.
Palate: A vibrant green apple skin note balances with stewed yellow plums and hints of black vanilla pod. Clean, freshly sawn oak softens to crisp, sweet barley in the long finish.
Finish: A delicious combination of citrus and sweet notes complement the unique oak characteristics from the octave cask maturation.
