PREMIUM SELECTION
GLEN TALLOCH BLENDED SCOTCH WHISKY
The entry level expression from the Glen Talloch blended Scotch whisky range, featuring a core of 30% single malt whiskies. With a relaxed flavour profile of citrus, runny caramel and orchard fruit (think pears and apple), joined by a touch of grist and peat, this is a fine value-for-money dram. According to the producers, it pairs rather well with salmon, too!
Tasting Notes
Note: All the features of a young Bottom Shelf Blend. I find sharp Grain Alcohol, Green Refill Oak and Wood Chips, Burnt Sugar/Caramel, Pepper and Malt. And then some light Smoke, Tar, Nut Casks, Burnt Toast and Margarine, Lemon Peel and Rubber. A Hint of Gooseberries.
Palate: Rather Thin Delivery but nevertheless somewhat better than I had expected after the indifferent Nose. I get Cereals, Caramel, Pepper, slightly Bitter Wood, light Smoke, Vanilla, Honey, Rubber, light Licorice and Grain Alcohol.
Finish: Short, Sugary Sweet and somewhat Bitter with Sugar, Grain Alcohol, Pepper and Wood. Some Alcohol Burn at the end.
