(Eastern Highland) Glen Esk Malt Whisky 1984 70cl

Glen Esk Malt Whisky 1984 bottled 1997. Glenesk Distillery has had a spotty past with many name changes and even converted to a grain distillery at one point. The distillery was closed in 1985. It has a very pale colour, almost clear, with yellow-green hints. The nose is dry and malty with fragrant cedar notes. The palate is quite sweet with honeydew melon flavours. A real firework of flavours, from the citrus fruit acidity to the sweetness of malt, with some chocolate hints and a kind of woody bitterness There's an underlying element of sourness (not unpleasant), that balances the sweetness. Finish: Very smooth, creamy, dry, with sweet apricot notes. Comment: A very pleasant malt.
