Adelphi Glenborrodale 8 Year Old Batch 5 Blended Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - No Gift Box

Glenborrodale 5 continues Adelphi's small batch blended malt range with Edrington base stock bought in – all matured in sherry butts from an early age – and then reinvigorated with a little extra, heavily sherried Glenrothes. This particular batch has more Speyside and less Island/Islay than batch 4, so a little more sherry, and less peat.

Tasting note: Slightly restrained aromatically with aromas of pineapple upside down cake (just like the label suggests!) followed by whiffs of caramel fudge. It’s medium dry and warming with lively spices, brittle malt and a firm drying finish that hints at cocoa, cool mint and citrus oils. Cream tea biscuits and floral honey notes linger. Medium length. Lovely aperitif style. 46% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered. 1050 bottles.
