Whisky Corner Glen Garioch #3181 is a 17 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky distilled at Glen Garioch in 2008 and bottled in 2026. This single-cask release was matured in a first-fill Amontillado sherry cask and bottled at 52.2% ABV. The whisky combines Glen Garioch’s robust Highland malt character with a distinctly nutty, fruity Amontillado influence, showing fig, candied orange, beeswax, honey, toffee, dates, roasted nuts and warming oak.
Food Pairing: Pair with roasted pork, glazed ham, aged Manchego, mature cheddar, roasted pecans or walnuts, fig tart, sticky toffee pudding, or dark chocolate.
Tasting Notes: Rich and layered, combining dried and candied fruits with honey, toffee, sweet malt and the savoury nuttiness associated with its Amontillado maturation.
Nose: Fig and candied orange lead into beeswax, honey and toffee, with earthy and lightly yeasty notes adding depth.
Palate: Medium-bodied, with roasted pecans, dates and tangerine zest supported by sweet malt and toffee.
Finish: Medium to long and layered, leaving brown sugar, gentle wood, caramel and roasted walnut notes.
Serve: Enjoy neat in a tulip-shaped whisky glass and allow it several minutes to open. A few drops of water can be added to its 52.2% ABV strength to develop the fruit and sherry-cask character.
