Special Edition Glen Breton® “Battle of the Glen”™ – Canadian Whisky News

Battle of the Glen™
Special Edition Glen Breton®
Glenora Distillery, Glenville, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia
A Single Malt worthy of the campaign commemorated by this Special Edition.
Colour
A rare dissolution of gold – at break of dawn, the first brushing of the sun upon the snow-covered lakes of the Bras d’Or;
Nose
Subtle, summer-cut applewood, with undertones of Highland honey;
Taste
Taking by surprise, come the waves of malt, powerful, but without overbearing, then a complex orchard of flavour;
Finish
Rich, almost lubricious mouthfeel, The malt withdraws into heat, resolving into the warm caress of an enduring companion, Peat character is very
subtle – rather wisps of hardwood smoke, evoking memories of autumn leaves;
Balance
The play between lightness of the whisky and the strength of the malt is a work of harmony….and mystery…….

Shades of Bruichladdich! A battle well fought and fairly won.
