Whisky Review: Glengoyne 15-Year Single Malt Scotch
Introduction We’re diving into something new (at least for us) today: Glengoyne 15-Year Single Malt Scotch . This Highland Scotch has been on our radar, and while we weren’t sure if we’d tried it before, the name just screams classic Scotch, so we were excited to finally sit down with it. Glengoyne 15 is, of course, a single malt made from 100% malted barley , and it clocks in at 43% ABV (86 proof) . The aging process is a mix of casks: 20% first-fill bourbon casks, 25% first-fill sherry casks, and 55% refill casks —a combination that had us curious to see what kind of depth and character it would bring to the glass. This review is taken from our episode " How to Train Your Dragon (2010) / Glengoyne 15 Year Scotch ." Click the link to listen to this review in audio format. Nose Brad: This is really beautiful on the nose. It reminds me of a nice fall apple cider, nutmeg, and there’s an almond nuttiness to it. It’s got that nice barley note on the nose
