Whisky Glenglassaugh 2015 8Y Highland 70cl - Astuccio - Provenance - Douglas Laing 2015

Glenglassaugh 2015, offered in Douglas Laing’s Provenance series, clearly displays Highland character in a young but composed guise: eight years that deliver a clean, luminous texture. On the nose there are white-fleshed fruits and citrus, accompanied by floral hints and a subtle honey that sweetens without weighing it down; the overall impression is one of cleanliness and freshness, supported by a medium body that stays balanced against the alcoholic component.

On the palate it is smooth and immediate, with pleasant roundness and delicate vanilla notes accompanied by a slightly spicy touch. The finish is clean and agreeable, suitable for those seeking a Highland with a bright yet substantial profile. Enjoy neat or with a few drops of water to open up the aromas; pairs well with dark chocolate, dried fruit and aged cheeses. The presentation box makes it an elegant choice for a gift or for collectors of contemporary expressions of the region.
