Comments:


The first official bottling available from Glengyle distillery. Apparently, around 5 years old. Definitely tastes young, and a little harsh. The lightness and airiness seems to be the type of whisky they're aiming for though. Like a slightly peaty Rosebank, without the brassiness.

Verdict:

I like this.
