Altogether a fairly classic sherried Glen Grant. Not a stunner or special, but nice. I'd want to have a bottle of it on the shelf, but I'm kinda borderline on that, so B/B+.
n: spectacular nose (one of the best - like perfume), super dense dried black cherry and Earl Grey Tea. Heavy malty wood varnish and deep milk chocolate.
t: liquified wood, cinnamon hard candy, noir chocolate. Lacquer and brown sugar. Triple bagged Earl Grey tea. This is very oaky and dry, really dense in flavour with leather in the rich middle. One of the most heavily oaked whiskys I have ever experienced. [This gets a bonus for being so extreme and unique]
The deepest red-brown-black color you can probbaly get. The nose has subtle toffee notes, rich vanilla, deep mountain oak (?), cherry laffy taffy and freshly cut wood. The palate is somewhat bitter with toasted oak, some leather and is prickly on my tongue. Chewy. B/B+ [12/13/13]
