Master of Malt Glen Elgin 2006 16 Year Old

Founded in 1898 near Elgin in Scotland’s Speyside region, Glen Elgin Distillery has long been prized by blenders for its rich, fruity spirit style and traditional production methods, including long fermentations and slow distillation. Today owned by Diageo, the distillery remains somewhat under the radar compared to larger Speyside names, making independent bottlings like this one especially appealing to whisky enthusiasts seeking distinctive single cask releases.

Tasting Notes
Nose: Rich aromas of toffee, warm caramel, buttery shortbread, creamy oak, vanilla, and syrup sponge cake evolve into hints of green banana and milky coffee.

Palate: Soft and rounded with layers of fudge, grilled pineapple, ginger warmth, condensed milk, chocolate-dipped berries, mellow oak char, and delicate baking spice.

Finish: Long and warming with lingering notes of cherry chocolate, butterscotch, sweet spice, and rich oak.
