Whisky I've Drank: The Singleton Of Glen Ord - Matured For 12 Years

By @RexAlban
Brand:Glen Ord
Type:Scotch
Region:Highland
ABV:40%
In 2006 Diageo launched The Singleton of Glen Ord for selected Asian markets. It is now however available at the distillery in the Muir of Ord. This whisky is worth going the distance, believe me.
The nose:

Is perfumed with hints of Turkish Delight, sherry, apples and peaches. Fading in and out may be some eucalyptus. Returned again to the glass and coffee caramel, it's been sitting for a while with a lid over the glass.
The palate: 

Smooth with Turkish Delight, prune, apple, some cinnamon, hints of creamy chocolate and hazelnut bar.
The finish: 

Is long warming with sherry and parma violets and the fruityness lasts right through.
Very pleasant after dinner malt.
