Glenlivet 15 Year Old French Oak Finish

This is an interesting dram, intense well melded flavours smoothly delivered.

The nose is subtle, malt and demerara sugar provide one theme but there are also fruity hints of orange and raspberries to brighten the bouquet.

In the mouth it’s very smooth, malty again but with some wood this time. Fruit is still present with orange zest, strawberries and apricots apparent to me. Somehow sweet and dry at the same time on the finish, not sure how that can be, but there are some bitter hints which are reminiscent of cocoa.

Not one to rush otherwise your likely miss the subtle highlights.
