Triple matured for richness and depth of flavour, the first Singleton Glen Ord in this series is a 14 yo given a unique and ingeniously complicated five cask maturation and marrying process. This is thought to be the first time that five different woods have been so used to mature a Single Malt Scotch Whisky.

Strength: 57.6% ABV
Region: Highlands
Bright polished brass with amber lights; very fine beading.
Soft and gentle, with appetising aromas of baked apple and orange zest, beeswax, crystalized orange and cedar-like spice. Grows sweeter, with hints of brown sugar and sponge cake; then fruity, with red apple and honey. Finally, embracing warmth.
Smooth, sweet and spicy, with some acidity, even a shake of salt. Fruity, with a lightly smoky-savoury edge. Raisin-rich, with smooth barley sugar, before growing powerful and mint-clean; then drier and lightly chalky.
Long, with an enduring warmth. Clean and pleasingly bitter, with a gentle, cleansing pine-dryness.
