Not a distillery that I've tried that often, but this is a decent old fashioned style whisky. They sherry cask seems to work well with the spirit - well worth trying a dram or two.

There is a nice meaty note on the nose with the remnants of a struck match, a hint of nuttiness too.

The mouthfeel is pleasant, just the right side of being thin - the cooked meat is present on the palate with a touch of struck matches - a gentle heat at the death with the tongue being coated.

Medium finish - the alcohol provides a gentle heat which lasts for a while, together with a hint of toasted almonds.

It does not happen too often that the nose is inferior to the taste. But this whisky is a good example of such situation. Generally this Glen Garioch lacks some balance, although the distillate shows its class, especially in the aftertaste.

some sulphur, cacao, sigar, earthy notes. Not the most intense nose with a hint of smoke.

rather long with baking spices, dark chocolate, tart oak, marzipane and coffee notes. Earthy and sulphur notes present as well.

The palate falls a bit flat, which is a shame.

Very mild, no noticeable age (no oak), almost like wine. Perfect first whisky in a tasting / summer whisky...

A fantastic dram for the Christmas season. I get plums and a hint of cinnamon on the nose. On the first sip, a wonderful sweetness on the palate. Hints of nuts and the cinnamon note transition into a subtle spiciness. Delicious.

Ugh... what a shame. If the rest of the whisky had done the same as the nose, this whisky would have easily earned 88 points. Unfortunately, it's now being penalized...

Sherry, coast, and a touch of wax. Not bad, but the cask has done its work; the distillate is barely recognizable anymore.
