Singleton Glen Ord 15 Years Special Release 2022 Highland Malt [700ML]

Description

What happens when Scotland’s most northerly mainland distillery meets eight years of ruby-red wine cask finishing?

The Singleton Glen Ord 15 Years Special Release 2022 represents Diageo’s masterful exploration of wine cask maturation, marking only the second time this Highland distillery has graced their prestigious annual collection. This limited edition expression transforms traditional Highland character through an extraordinary dual-maturation process. It sits comfortably beside other aged Highland expressions such as the Glenmorangie 14 Years Quinta Ruban and the GlenDronach 15 Years.

• Distillery: Glen Ord – Scotland’s Black Isle, established 1838
• Region: Highland – renowned for elegant, complex single malts
• ABV: 40% – perfectly balanced for approachable complexity
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: American and European oak, finished 8 years in red wine-seasoned casks
• Tasting Notes: Deep mahogany hue reveals raspberries and plums on the nose, while the palate delivers barley-sugar sweetness with gooseberry tartness, nutmeg spice, and candied fruits, finishing with dark chocolate and earthy complexity
• Best Served: Neat or over a single ice cube to unlock the wine influence

Our team at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store has discovered this expression showcases remarkable wine integration without overwhelming the Highland character. The ruby solstice finishing creates layers that unfold beautifully over time in your glass.
