Sall Whisky GLØD 3.2 Organic Single Malt Danish Whisky 70 cl 52.2%

No smoke. Just the pure single farm malt from Djursland at 52.2%. Sall Whisky's GLØD series is the answer to the question of what happens when all focus is placed on the grain – not the peat.

Expert description

Sall Whisky GLØD 3.2 is an Organic Danish Single Malt Whisky bottled at 52.2% from Sall Whisky in Djursland, Jutland. The whisky is batch 3.2 of the ongoing GLØD series – the distillery's unpeated expression.

Tasting notes

Nose

Clean and fruity – organic grain, a light sweetness and a hint of woodland berries from the fermentation. No smoke, but a clear character from the North Jutland single farm malt.

Palate

52.2% is a good strength for bringing out the organic malt's nuances. Cereal and fruity with a light sweetness and a touch of honey and light citrus.

Finish

Fresh and medium length with the grain's natural sweetness as the closing note.

Did you know?

GLØD and TØRV are Sall Whisky's two parallel series – the same single farm malt, the same distillery, two completely different profiles. Comparing the two is a unique exercise in what peat actually does to a distillate: everything else is the same. This is especially interesting because the malt base is from the same farm and harvest.

What is the difference between GLØD and TØRV?

What does GLØD 3.2 taste like?

Clean organic grain, light sweetness from the malt, freshness and a tendency towards fruitiness from the fermentation. No smoke – just the distillate and the malt's own character at 52.2%.
