(Good Spirits Co. Glasgow Virtual Whisky Tasting 25 June 2020) Amusingly, this bottling had the name of the distillery misspelled on the bottle and packaging! (Glen Garrioch rather than Glen Garioch - oops!) The nose is sugared breakfast cereal. The upfront taste is quite young, with apricot and black pepper. Finish is medium with notes of chocolate cocoa beans. Strangely, this whisky is distilled in Speyside, then transported to Glasgow where it is casked in refilled bourbon hogsheads, so it has quite a few miles on it before it ever sees a bottle Came joint fourth out of the six whiskies, with 5% of the final vote.
