Glen Mhor 30 years old 1982 Review

By Miguel in Tasting , Glen Mhor

I had already tasted a Glen Mhor before but being a rare whisky which distillery was closed on 1983 and not being as famous as Port Ellen it is a rare occasion to find a bottle of it.

“Deliciously floral single malt whisky from this lost distillery. A tragic loss with hints of candies and spices. *sniff* *sniff*”

Glen Mhor 1982 / 30 Year Old / Cask #1606 / Signatory Speyside Whisky
A 1982 vintage Glen Mhor bottled by independent bottlers Signatory at the end of 2012. This was distilled a year before the distillery closed, one of the many casualties of the cull of 1983 and bottlings are becoming increasingly difficult to obtain.

This dram has a gold-like color.

Nose (90): more than average. floral, spices, candies, wood, citrus.

Palate (91): powerful, oily. honey, floral, citrus, spices, pepper, vanilla.

Finish (90): longer than average. honey, floral, spices.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Glen Mhor 1982 / 30 Year Old / Cask #1606 / Signatory Speyside Whisky with 90 points over 100.

A real privilege to taste this dram… and also a great whisky.
