The Singleton of Glen Ord 39yo is a remarkable single malt whisky crafted by the renowned Glen Ord Distillery in the Highlands region. Aged for an extraordinary 39 years, this whisky was bottled in 2021 and is part of an exclusive limited release of just 1,695 bottles. With an ABV of 46.2% and a bottle size of 700ml, this masterfully matured whisky has a rich and complex flavor profile that showcases the distillery's expertise and dedication to quality. This exquisite whisky has been aged in a combination of European oak casks that previously held port, red wine, Pedro Ximenez, and Oloroso sherry. The casks were then married in Bordeaux red wine casks, resulting in a symphony of flavors and aromas that are both intricate and harmonious. On the nose, you are greeted with rich fruit cake, wine-soaked raisins, candied orange, toasted almonds, butterscotch, and slightly burnt vanilla sponge cake. These aromatic notes are enhanced by hints of peppery spice, sticky dried fruits, plums, and sweet cherries. The palate is equally enchanting, with sweet aromas of marzipan and sherry-soaked raisins leading into flavors reminiscent of Christmas cake and stewed plums. The whisky's full-bodied nature is balanced with a medium-strong oiliness, a touch of saltiness, and a lingering spice from cardamom and cinnamon. The finish is long, spicy, and complex, leaving a lasting impression of woody notes and a unique sweetness. The Singleton of Glen Ord 39yo is a truly rare and exciting release that deserves a special place in any connoisseur's collection.
