Auchentoshan Select (2006) 1 Litre
One of the flagship expressions from this Lowland whisky brand, Auchentoshan Select, is a great introductory whisky for people just getting into Scotch. This is a 100cl bottle of impressive size.
Discontinued distillery bottling of Auchentoshan Select, no age statement Single Malt Lowland Whisky.
Auchentoshan Select is a versatile Scotch whisky known for its smooth and approachable character. Here are some tasting notes to help you appreciate the flavours of this fine selection:
TASTING NOTES
Nose: Initial wood and banana soon give way to freshness, distinctly of green apple and orange peels. Later, more vanilla toffee comes out before the nose fades to light and sweet green apple pulp.
Palate: Honey and green apple peels at entry, turning to the delicate lightness of the green apple pulp with accents of lime zest.
Founded on the western outskirts of Glasgow in 1823, Auchentoshan became part of Morrison Bowmore in 1984 shortly before the company was taken over by Japanese distilling giant Suntory. Auchentoshan was for a while one of only two surviving Lowland distilleries after Rosebank and Bladnoch closed in 1993. Auchentoshan has three stills and practices triple distillation in the classic Lowland style, making a light, easy-drinking whisky so popular that all of its production is bottled as single malt.
Former owners Eadie Cairns bottled both vintage and age statement Auchentoshans in the 1970s and 1980s prior to the distillery’s acquisition by Morrison Bowmore, who added a 21-year-old and the enormously popular Three Wood to the range and released dozens of superb long-aged vintage casks going back to the 1950s. Independent Auchentoshan is easy to find.
