The Glenlochy 1980 SV Cask Strength Collection 32yo Refill Butt #1759 is a remarkable whisky offering from Signatory Vintage. Distilled in 1980 at the renowned Glenlochy Distillery in the Highlands, this whisky has been matured for an impressive 32 years in a refill butt cask, numbered #1759. Bottled in 2012, this expression boasts an ABV of 60.1% and is presented in a 700ml bottle. With only 499 bottles available, it is a rare gem for collectors and whisky enthusiasts alike. The aroma of this whisky reveals minimal sherry influence, presenting a delicate balance of mineral citrus freshness, grassy notes, and a subtle hint of minty and herbal undertones. As you explore further, you detect the intriguing presence of dehydrated dried fruit and coconut chips, adding complexity to the bouquet. On the palate, the Glenlochy 1980 delivers a robust and potent experience. Initial notes of lemons, iron, silver, and grapefruits are prominent, with a rich manuka honey sweetness that cuts through with a fresh citrus and vegetal maritime oily note. When water is added, the whisky evolves, revealing spangles, lichee, and barley sugar sweetness, gradually becoming richer as the honey reappears. The finish is long, with lingering notes of crystallised lemon fruit, grassy elements, and a wisp of mature peat smoke. This meticulously aged Scotch exemplifies a well-balanced profile with a hint of austerity, making it an exceptional choice for those who appreciate a subtle sherry influence without overwhelming dominance.
