The Glengoyne Balba\u00edna European Oak Oloroso Sherry Casks from the winemakers of Balba\u00edna is an accessible whisky that, as far as I am concerned, you could drink in any season of the year. The Glengoyne Balba\u00edna is part of the travel retail series of the brand. Glengoyne is a distillery that exists since 1833 and therefore has many different types of whisky in its range. The distillery is located in the lowlands region just above loch Lomond. Special about this bottle is that it is a litre bottle. It comes in a beautiful red box with a gold Mediterranean print. The bodega of the Balba\u00edna winemakers is located in the southern part of Spain. These influences can be seen and tasted in the whisky. The price-quality ratio is in my opinion good. One litre costs on average around \u20ac50,- a \u20ac60,- depending on the seller of course. The Glengoyne Balba\u00edna is a full and intense whisky with a light bright golden yellow colour. The aroma is sweet and with its 43% alcohol content it is not a very heavy whisky.
Not a very heavy whisky. This whisky is a great whisky to start the evening or as a 'drink-through' for the whole evening. Expect notes of sultanas, spices, dried fruit, brown sugar and honey. The Glengoyne Balba\u00edna is
A soft whisky for the real aficionado. I also recommend this whisky to the novice drinker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nose<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Today I poured a glass in a nosing & tasting glass. In this glass, the aroma comes out well. The smell of the whisky is a full sweet intense aroma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Taste<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The Glengoyne Balba\u00edna has a sweet taste. Because the alcohol content is not too high, it has a light finish of medium length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • Spicey<\/li>

      Verdict<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      The Glengoyne Balba\u00edna European Oak Oloroso Sherry Casks is a fine whisky to have in your range. Especially for a novice drinker or if you want to enjoy an evening drinking whisky, this is a must in my opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      DISTILLERY<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      The Glengoyne distillery was founded in 1833 by George Connell and was known as the Burnfoot distillery. It is located at Dumgoyne in the lowlands north of Glasgow and close to loch Lomond in Scotland. There are stories that when the distillery was sold it was to continue under the name Glengoyne, but due to an error the brand was registered as Glen Guin. Later this was changed to Glengoyne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
