Whisky Forum - Glen Moray Launch Classic Sherry Cask Finish

William

The new Glen Moray Classic Sherry Cask Finish launches this July, it was matured in American oak casks before being finished in Oloroso sherry casks for a minimum of 8 months. Yes it is young but it is also fun and very enjoyable, at Â£22 a bottle you just have to!

It will be available in Sainsbury's supermarkets from July. You can read my review here:

Cheers William, as you say you just have to at this price.

I picked up a botte of the standard (non-sherry finish) version of this for Â£17 in Morrisons a couple of weeks ago. Yes it's young, chill-filtered and if the colour is anything to go by contains a healthy dose of E150a but it's really not bad at all for the money - sure there is much better whisky out there but as an everyday dram it was perfectly drinkable and makes a good whisky and ginger ale cocktail for the warmer evenings we've enjoyed of late. If I see this new version in my local supermarket I may well give it a try.

I enjoyed the Glen Moray port cask and the Peated both great for the price, I will certainly give this a go, cheers for the review William

Sounds good William, I would be up to try this, hopefully Sainsbury's in Northern Ireland stock it but I wont hold my breath as they don't stock the Port Finish or Peated.

Picked up a bottle of the new sherry cask finish and the Glen Moray Peated today in Sainsburys. Will give them a try at the weekend.

I picked up a bottle of the sherry cask finish in Sainsbury's yesterday, had a couple of drams last night, as William says young and fun for the price.

The sherry version is a decent dram for the money.. It won't set the world on fire and it won't dissapoint.. Well worth the money ðŸ‘
