Glengoyne Teapot Dram Batch No.10 (2024) 3cl Sample

Whisky Situation Comments:

One of the all time favourite sherry bombs. Incredibly satisfying and for those outside of the UK, you can finally obtain the teapot dram through us here at Whisky Situation.

The latest batch of Glengoyne's popular Teapot Dram - Batch No. 010.

The Teapot Dram tells the story of an old Glengoyne tradition, where workers would be given three fingers of whisky twice a day (three on a Friday!). The younger workers would often decant their dram into a teapot for the older workers to sip during their shift.

On the nose, Batch No. 010 provides a sweet allure of candied pecans, Battenberg cake and flaky pastry with shavings of dark chocolate. The mouthfeel is rich and decadent. Marzipan and Christmas spice evoke festive memories with a subtle hint of cardamom adding an exotic twist. As the flavours develop, long notes of dry sherry and red grape emerge, intertwined with a burst of orange zest. The finish is soft with a velvety smoothness. Baked fruits linger, leaving behind hints of vanilla and gentle oak, ensuring a memorable and satisfying end to this exquisite dram.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE:
Boozy raisins mingle with the sweet allure of candied pecans. Vanilla weaves through, accompanied by a warming spice that hints of a cosy evening by the fire. A delightful note of Battenberg cake with tart dried cranberry. The experience is rounded off with the comforting scent of flaky pastry adorned with shavings of dark chocolate.

PALATE:
The mouthfeel is rich and decadent. Caramel sauce flows into the sweetness of dates and hazelnut brittle. Marzipan and Christmas spice evoke festive memories with a subtle hint of cardamom adding an exotic twist. As the flavours develop, long notes of dry sherry and red grape emerge, intertwined with a burst of orange zest.

FINISH:
Finishing softly with a velvety smoothness. Baked fruits linger, leaving behind hints of vanilla and gentle oak, ensuring a memorable and satisfying end to this exquisite dram.
