Special features: The Glengoyne 15 years matures in a combination of first-fill bourbon and first-fill sherry casks, resulting in a harmonious interplay of sweet and spicy aromas. The distillery consciously avoids the use of peat, giving the whisky a clear, smoke-free note. Additionally, it is not colored, so the natural color is preserved.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Inviting aromas of fresh hay, malt flour, rose hips, citrus fruits, and dried fruits.
Palate: Gentle sweetness with tropical fruits, candied lemon, cinnamon, vanilla, and apple pie.
Finish: Pleasantly dry with subtle oak spices and lingering vanilla.
Distillery/Bottler: The Glengoyne Distillery, founded in 1833, is located on the border between the Highlands and the Lowlands of Scotland. It is known for its slow distillation and maturation in sherry casks, resulting in a characterful whisky.
