Tasting Notes

Nose

Dried fruit, honey, a gentle warmth. Fifteen years add genuine depth to Glen Ord's naturally fruity spirit. Beneath the fruit, vanilla, a gentle spice and a gentle warmth.

Palate

Fruity and mature — dried fruit, honey, a gentle oak spice. Fifteen years and sherry cask influence create genuine complexity. Mid-palate brings toffee, a gentle warmth and a clean sweetness.

Finish

Medium-long, with fruit and gentle warmth.

The Singleton of Glen Ord 15 Year Old adds genuine maturity to the popular Asian market expression. Fifteen years of maturation in a combination of European and American oak — with sherry-seasoned cask influence — give it more depth than the standard 12.

The fifteen years transform Glen Ord from accessible to genuinely interesting. The sherry influence has time to integrate, and the naturally fruity spirit develops a composed maturity.

Glen Ord 15 demonstrates the distillery's quality when given time. The genuine maturity, sherry influence and fair price create a Highland malt worth serious attention.
