Glen Moray 12 years

Score: 55

Glen Moray 12 Year Old may not be a showstopper, but it earned quiet respect at the club tasting. Its clean, bourbon-cask character, all soft vanilla, toasted cereal, and a touch of citrus, it wasn’t trying to steal the spotlight, but it held its own with quiet confidence. The club appreciated it for what it was: an honest, easy-drinking Speysider that didn’t overpromise or overwhelm. It was the kind of dram that got nods around the room—“solid,” “surprisingly decent,” “good value”—and a few folks even circled back for a second pour once the peat and sherry fireworks had faded.
