Official Tasting Notes

The nose is sweetly spiced then heads citric with a subtle hint of new wooden flooring, freshly polished. Palate wise, overripe pineapple, plus ginger, vanilla and mocha flavours all appear leading to a drier, lightly smoked and oaky - even mentholated - finish.

Distillery

Glen Flagler/Garnheath Distillery

Classified as a Lowland distillery, Glen Flagler was a hybrid pot still operation within the old Moffat complex, which also produced Garnheath grain whisky. Glen Flagler was bottled by the distillery and by independent merchants. The Moffat distillery complex was set up in 1964 by Inver House Distillers, a subsidiary of Publicker Industries Inc., in the USA. Malt whisky distilling commenced in February, 1965 and continued until 1982.  There were 6 pot stills operating technically as two separate distilleries, one making Glen Flagler, and Glen Moffat, a heavier version of Glen Flagler and the other making Killyloch, and Islebrae.
