Nine years is young in Glenlossie's world, but even here you can sense why the distillery is so prized by blenders. Berry Bros & Rudd has captured the fresh, direct side of the whisky before time got to round off anything.
Expert's Description
Glenlossie 2007/2017 Berry Bros 9 Year Old is a Single Speyside Malt Whisky bottled at 46%.
Distilled in 2007 and bottled in 2017 by Berry Bros & Rudd under the Berry's Own Selection label, from a single cask, No. 10103, at just nine years old this is one of the youngest Glenlossie releases in our range, showing the distillery's clean, cereal character more clearly than the older bottlings.
Tasting Notes
Nose
Fresh barley malt, green apple and a light honeyed sweetness. No obvious cask influence yet – this is clean, young Glenlossie.
Palate
Crisp and direct, with cereal, pear and a light peppery spice. The texture is lighter than its older siblings, but still with good body.
Finish
Short to medium, dry and cereal-driven, with a last hint of apple skin.

Berry Bros & Rudd still sells its wine and whisky from the cellars beneath its London shop, where the ceiling in places is barely a metre and a half high – a physical reminder of just how old the business really is.
