The city of Elgin is the heart of Speyside and home to Glen Moray Distillery. Situated on the banks of the River Lossie, it's main water source, the distillery has been in operation since 1897, the year it officially converted from a brewery. Like its 12 year old younger sibling, this 16 year single malt is bourbon cask-matured and bottled at 40% ABV.

This one is a hard one to rate. Nothing stands out about it, all the usual bourbon cask culprits - honey etc. It's not particularly complex or interesting but everything is in harmony. I'd say 3.5. It's very cheap here $60USD. Now the rounding part VFM says 4 but it's just not that level so sadly down to 3 it goes.
Nose has more vanilla than the 12. Less spice. Oily. Taste has a little bite at first. Smooth and short finish. Sweet. With water it gets to be a medium finish. Tasted at Glen Moray Distillery on 7/22/2016
Lots of vanilla on the nose. Little bite at the start then super smooth and somewhat swept through a short to short-medium finish. Water extends it to a med-long finish
Good but I really expected more. Some sweet, little smoky, gets better after some time in the glass. Middle finish, silky...
3.7 글렌모레이 16 마분지 향 마시긴 편한데 개성이 많이 없다 자극이 너무 약하다 블랜디드 위스키 사이에서 시음해도 개성이나 자극이 밀리는 느낌 최근 마셨던 글렌글라사 에볼루션보다도 아쉬웠다
I liked the slight peat smoked flavor and vanilla, caramel finish. I found it smooth and sipping enjoyable.
