The 21-year-old Port Wood Finish is part of Glen Moray's Elgin Heritage range. This Speyside whisky is stored in American oak casks (ex-bourbon) and aged in Port casks from the Portuguese Douro Valley, giving it a smooth, fruity note.
Nose: Strathenry R&Be reveals sweet notes of vanilla and honey, accompanied by a subtle hint of citrus. Feel: On the palate, this whisky reveals woody and spicy flavors, with hints of caramel and dried fruit. Finish: The finish is long and warm, leaving a pleasant sensation of sweetness and complexity on the palate.
Nose: Viney, nutty, astringent and austere. Notes of old bookstore, cocoa and black coffee. A light touch of pine and 'old sherry'-style resin.
Mouth: Nutty notes, dominated by Oloroso. There's a hint of bitterness, like that of a hopped beer. Malty but very fresh despite the sherry.
Finish: Long and tannic.
