GlenGlasgagh GLENGLASSAUGH 1977-1993 15yo CADENHEAD 59.0%
The aroma is rustic with a strong barley note, a straw-like quality and a faint vegetal character, ginger and cinnamon, plain cask notes.
When drinking, it gradually becomes spicy, with a chewy texture, strong barley umami and a rich sweetness, faint cinnamon and herbs, plain and natural, with a long finish.
[Good/Very Good]
Cadenhead bottled this GlenGlasgagh 1977 in 1993, aged for 15 years.
This is typical of the short-aged plain cask Green Cadenhead style common at the time, with minimal cask influence and a rustic, strong barley character as the core.
While not entirely representative of GlenGlasgagh, it has a slightly herbal vegetal note, and the condensed richness that likely emerged over time pairs well with the barley umami, making it a delicious malt.
Though not overly complex, it's a bottle where the core barley spirit has matured nicely. Personally, I quite like this type.
