Glen Moray 12 Year Old Smoky Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 70cl

Glen Moray 12 Year Old Smoky is a peated expression from the Glen Moray distillery in Elgin, Speyside — a region rarely associated with smoky whisky. Distilled from peated barley and matured in a selection of American and European oak casks, it threads gentle bonfire smoke through the distillery's signature sweet, fruity Speyside style.

The nose is bright with lemon and iodine, layered with fresh green grass and vanilla. On the palate, a creamy mouthfeel carries ashy smoke balanced by nougat-like sweetness and a hint of lemon peel, before a lengthy, smoky finish with a touch of balanced bitterness.

Bottled at 46.3% ABV and non-chill filtered, this is an approachable introduction to peated whisky for drinkers who love Speyside's fruit-forward character.
