Distillery 2014 Hogshead Indie 9y

About

The Glenkinchie Lowland Distillery 9 Years Old, distilled in 2014, is a fine example of the elegant Lowland style. Bottled by an independent bottler, this whisky is non-chill filtered and boasts an ABV of 48%. Its maturation in a refill hogshead cask imparts a distinctive complexity and depth that will surely appeal to whisky aficionados. On the palate, you'll find notes of fresh green fruits such as apple and unripe pear, complemented by subtle hints of citrus and spicy undertones of white pepper and cardamom. The flavor profile also includes unexpected elements of lemon cake and the bitter core of pineapple, adding to its unique character. The finish is dry, with a touch of wood tannins, fudge, and a hint of candied orange peel. This whisky pairs wonderfully with light cheeses or a delicate fish dish, enhancing its fresh and complex flavors.
