Review #1407 | Scotch Review #487

Distiller: Glenlossie

Bottler: SMWS

Brand: SMWS

Selection: N/A

ABV: 58.3% ABV

Age: 11 Years

Nose: Bright and sweet. Cream cheese frosting, vanilla bean, sugar and honey.

Taste: Sweet confectioners sugar, light minerality, vanilla bean and a good deal of ethanol. Medium mouth feel.

Finish: Long but hot. Lots of vanilla, light plastic, some toffee and fresh baked cake.

Overall: Hot but some complexity here. I like it. It’s weird, in that I typically don’t enjoy being beat up but this has some nice stuff going on so I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt.

Thanks for reading!
