Tasting notes
Chris Goodrum (Gauntleys)
A blend of Linkwood, Teaninich and Glen Elgin malt, plus Cambus and Cameronbridge grain.
A crisp, clean nose which is initially a touch grassy, followed by delicate Speyside fruit, earth, a touch of perfumed orange, hard barley, honey and grain. Smooth on the palate, opening with the creamy oak. The grain begins to bite, with more intensity than I remember, leading to a soft, juicy Linkwood-grassy middle with brusque hints of honey. The spirity-grain returns again on the finish. It’s interesting; it feels like the malt is the sandwich filling between two layers of grain. Still very polished.
