Glen Garioch 12 review

Understated. Under the radar. Misunderstood. There are many more "under" terms and titles that could be used when discussing Glen Garioch 12. Or indeed, any Glen Garioch offering. If this expression is anything to go by and/or any of the other things I've heard about this distillery's general reputation are true...then it appears to be a bit of a "Marmite" style of whisky. What do I mean by that? Well, if you aren't aware, Marmite is a yeast extract, savoury spread which comes with the advertising tag (their words not mine)...Love It or Hate It. Personally, I'm not a fan. Of Marmite that is. But what about Glen Garioch??

Enjoy.
