Description

Glenkinchie was originally founded in 1825 and launched under the name Milton. The distillery was cherry picked by Diageo to represent the finest of the lowland whisky region in their Classic Malts range of 1988. Situated in Pencaitland, East Lothian, 'kinchie' is a derivative of the name 'De Quincy', the family name of the original farmland owners upon which the distillery was built. This Distillers Edition is double-matured in ex-bodega Amontillado cask wood.

Maltiply Tasting Profile
Nose
Brisk and brittle. Complex and excellent; astonishing balance between sweet and dry. Firmer, drier notes from soft and crisp grape; sweeter, nuttier ones from malted barley and cask wood.
Palate
Dry, after early biscuit sweetness. Enormous malt character contrasts with thin fruitiness of the grape.
Finish
Very long, dry, oaky. Very faint peppery notes add spice.
