A whisky bathed in the soft warmth of Autumn light. Picture walking through a forest on the slopes of a Pyrenean mountain – a perfect single moment of carefree joy. Fallen Autumn leaves carpet the path ahead, conversations cocooned by red and orange. Look up. Rays of golden light split between the canopy, framing a gradient sky. This 14-year-old expression from The Singleton Glen Ord Distillery is matured life-long in first-fill ex-Bourbon casks, then part-finished with the lively influence of Pyrenean and Spanish oak cask ends. Vibrant orchard fruit flavours can be savoured, alongside fragrant aromatics and grassy notes as crisp as the air unfolds. A freshness balanced with comforting sweetness that swells with vanilla, toffee and spice.
