What some of our whisky loving friends have said about Glen Moray Speyside Bourbon Cask
Quote 1 “No need to be a snob. This is a great whisky for the price. (around ￡20 a bottle). It definitely benefits from allowing a cube of ice to half-melt which releases more of the flavour.
I find it smooth with a nicely rounded caramel flavour to it. One day, I blind tested Glen Moray (a single malt) against a Chivas Regal (a blend) , both of which were Christmas gifts. Sorry to say the Chivas was immediately recognisable as having an industrial alcohol smell and a harsh taste. The Moray on the other hand is very mild and mellow and subtle. It is my new go-to dram, closely followed by J.W. Black. ”
Quote 2 “Extraordinary good whisky, regarding the price the best whisky I ever tasted. A decent during the week drink that is light, fragrant and represents excellent value for money, I would warmly recommend. ”
