The Glen Ord is a whisky producer located in the Scottish Highlands and is the only remaining single malt scotch whisky distillery on the Black Isle. Its principal product is an eponymous 12-year-old single malt whisky. The distillery won awards for the best single malt at the International Wine and Spirit Competition in 1994 and 1996, and at the Monde Selection in 1996 and 1997. Safe to say, it is one of the top whiskey brands in the world.
A new expression of THE Glen Ord, bottled at 18 years old for Diageo's 'Singleton' range. We believe there was a fairly generous proportion of sherry casks used in the composition of this malt. Early fresh citrus fruit and rustic waxy notes mature into a rich, soft creaminess offset by aromatic spices before arriving at a comforting, warming conclusion, ideally after dinner.
