Review:
Auchentoshan Single Malt Scotch “American Oak” expression was introduced around 2014 to replace the “Classic” expression. I have been to the distillery outside of Glasgow and I highly recommend a visit if you are in the area. The Highland distilleries look nice, but they are long trip from Glasgow or Edinburgh.
American Oak is a non-complex, easy drinking scotch. I believe the name is self-evident of where they source the wood. I find most of the expressions from Auchentoshan to be easy to drink and a good in the warmer weather on ice. Lowland whisky is not known to be as rich, robust, or peaty as the Highland scotches. From my experience this whisky is a good one for occasional whisky drinkers and older people who don’t like too much flavor on their tongues. It is also good for anyone who drinks cheap whisky. The people who drink the cheap shit will think this scotch is amazingly good. You will save lots of money if they start sucking it down.
Priced around $35 and worth the money for an easy drinker.
