Words from Michael Jackson :
Inchgower lies near the fishing town of Buckle, and its whisky is less
of 3 Speyside malt in character than a coastal one.
To the palate expecting a more flowery, elegant Speyside malt, this
one can seem assertive, or even astringent, in its saltiness. With familiarity,
that can
become addictive. A lovely, sustaining dram after a stroll by the sea
or a day's fishing. An earlier 12-year-old was slightly sweeter and fractionally
more sherryish than the newer 14 year-old. which has more distillery character.
The Inchgower distillery was built in 1871. and expanded in 1966.
House style Dry, salty. Restorative or aperitif.
