Description

From Duncan Taylor comes the 'Octave' series of whiskies, which take their name from the miniature sherry butts in which they're matured. Barrels of this size imbue far more in the way of oak, thanks to the surface area that's exposed to the wood. This Glen Grant came to be back in 1990.

Nose
Delightful aroma. Full of fruit, warm plum crumble, figs, sultanas, a hint of beeswax, backed by some warm toasted oak.
Palate
It has a light, elegant, and refined taste. The oak is slightly louder on the nose yet well rounded with plenty of dried fruits again. Malty with sweet tobacco and cinder toffee. A lovely sherry finesse.
Finish
Quite rich and lovely smooth texture. Long and rich, gingery spice and some honey mustard in the background. Touches of unami that fade to a sweet nuttiness.
