Glen Elgin 2009 16 Year Old – Adelphi

Earthy and spicy, with notes of roasted sesame, a hint of soy, and damp forest moss. Behind this, gingerbread and a fresh touch of orange liqueur emerge.

Full and distinctly savory. Brazil nuts and dark rye bread go together with eucalyptus and roasted fennel. Raisins provide a soft fruity sweetness, while warm oriental spices and tarragon create a spicy, almost aromatic character.

Medium-bodied and savory, with dry leather, soft spices, and a light earthy impression that lingers gently.
