Whisky Concerto·RecitalGlen Garioch

Whisky Concerto Glen Garioch is a single malt Scotch whisky from the Highlands, bottled from a single cask at a natural cask strength of 57.8% ABV. This release was distilled in 2011 and matured for 13 years in a first-fill bourbon barrel.

For a new drinker, that combination usually points to a whisky with a more individual cask character and a fuller, more powerful style than standard bottlings. First-fill bourbon wood often brings clear notes of vanilla, oak, and bright fruit, while the high strength means it may benefit from a small splash of water.
