Glen Moray 32 Year Old Whisky Sponge Ed. 99 1990 & 1991 Casks (2024) 70cl

1 of 304 bottles produced. RRP £495

This is Whisky Sponge Edition No.99: the Penultimate Sponge!

Like Edition No.1, it’s a sexy old Glen Moray. However, for this one, we did some well-honed Decadent Drinks cask mixology and muddled together a refill hogshead of 1990 Glen Moray with a 2nd fill sherry hogshead of 1991 Glen Moray. We left that brew to stew inside the sherry hoggie for several months, then bottled the mix at natural cask strength.

It’s fruity, opulent, decadent and tastes like the set furniture from 2001 Space Odyssey draped with all the cardigans in rural Englandshire.

Please enjoy this whisky while trawling this website and reading every single rear label on every single bottling we ever did. The first person to spot the cheekily concealed secret to quantum fusion technology contained within will win a t-shirt and a bespoke insult from the Sponge.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: vividly fruity, waxy and beautifully mature. Lots of polished hardwood notes, soft spices, fruit cakes, crystalised green and exotic fruits, jams and then also beers, more waxes and slightly honeyed, dessert wine notes.

Palate: richly fruity once again, lots of dark fruits, quince, more waxes, hessian, cedar wood and resinous hardwood notes. Beyond that some herbal teas and delicate floral aspects. Wonderful complexity and detail.

Finish: long, resinous, waxy, fruity and warming with soft spices, flowers and citrus peel.
