GLENLOSSIE 2008 15 YO PX FINISH WILSON & MORGAN 70CL 52,8%
€ 110,00 VAT includedAdd to basketThe aroma of this Glenlossie 15 years old, as expected from a 12 months finish in Pedro Ximenez, is raisiny, with dried plums too. There is a touch of freshly cut wood, but also a totally unexpected estery note that seems to bring us to Jamaica! At the palate it has that deep, round, thick and chewy richness which, on the other hand, reminds us of some American whiskies: sweet, very aromatic, with notes of vanilla, mint and camphor. Some toffee and dark chocolate too. A totally crazy bottling… maybe a bit “deviant” compared to what you would expect from Scotland, but a lot of fun and pleasure!

GLENLOSSIE 2013 OLOROSO FINISH WILSON & MORGAN 70CL 46%
€ 63,00 VAT includedAdd to basketThe whisky from this elusive Speyside distillery is always a rarity, as it has almost never been released in official bottlings. The influence of a 2-years finish in first fill Oloroso butts is evident in the winey, slightly sour note at the nose… although the fat distillery style still shines through, adding a curiously buttery touch. The palate is dominated by a nutty note, especially almonds: at times it really tastes like marzipan cookies! It’s slightly raisiny, with dried apricots too. There’s a contrast between the overall austerity of the style, the tannins from the oak, and the honeyed background. The tannic and austere side wins in the end, with a finale that’s rather oaky, a bit herbal, and again with a hint of almondy bitterness.
