TASTING NOTES - GLENDALOUGH POT STILL PEATED

Nose

The creamy and sweet profile of Glendalough malt is the first impression, with light custard, honey, apples. The light, gentle, earthy peat is then added with toasted oak and a distant touch of spices. The pot still spicy kick is not very evident.

Palate

Creamy and with a great mouthfeel, with baked apple, warming spices (much more present than in the nose), almonds, and a subtle smokiness that adds depth.

Finish

Medium duration, with semi-sweet spices, a touch of almond and earthiness.

Glendalough Peated is overall a quite varied product, with several different layers of tastes which are making the fruition dynamic and enjoyable. Unconventional, a whiskey worth exploring.
