Glengoyne Shiraz Cask Finish?

[srnadel]

Has anyone ever tried Glengoyne Limited Edition Glenguin Shiraz Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky Aged 16 years? I was told 145 cases were produced. 80 were released in Europe and 65 are coming to the US.

ABV...are you familiar with it?

Besides seeing it mentioned in a press release I have no idea about it. I don't think it has actually made it here yet.

It should be here next month. I've never seen a Shiraz finish, but that doesn't mean one isn't out there.

Any idea on the price Seth? This sounds like something I will want.

I have a feeling it's going to retail anywhere from $79.99/bottle to $89.99/bottle. I was a little surprised by the price. It's not as high as I thought it would be for a one-and-only bottling. $80-$90 isn't cheap, but I would have thought at least $100/bottle.

$110-120 seems to be the going price in the EU.

I don't want to play the "if" game, but if it comes into the country and if my distributor files the price he said he would then we will feature it for $79.99/bottle.

Someone...anyone....Please but up some tasting notes on this bottle. This has really peaked by interest for some reason.

Thanks.
