Comments:
Big disconnect between the airy light mouthfeel and the complex, savoury, meaty flavour notes! I like the slightly fermented taste, and there's a funny interesting peppery kick in the nose too. Lots going on here. Glen Garioch whiskies are quite light - could almost be Lowlanders.
Verdict:
I like this a lot!
