Glenburgie 1975 45YO, Berry Bro's Exceptional Casks, Cask #6011
Details
Glenburgie, known originally as Kilnflat, sits on the coastal grasslands at the Moray firth, close to the town of Forres. Built in 1829, it passed through several owners until 1936 when, with its sister distillery Miltonduff, it became a key ingredient in one of Scotland's leading blends.
Tasting Notes
This wise old Speysider initially gives musty aromas of old leather, dusty attics and cigar boxes, however a little time in the glass, and perhaps a little warmth from one's hands reveals a deeper fruity side. The palate is truly mouthcoating, with an old-style tropical fruit and waxy character building to an immensely complex and balanced experience. The long finish shows all the personality this spirit has built up over a near half century of maturation. Immense, unique and mind bogglingly good.
