Glenglassaugh Glenglassaugh Distillery is a Highland malt whisky distillery situated at Sandend Bay near Portsoy on the Banffshire coast with views north over the Moray Firth & the North Sea & is one of just a very few truly coastal Highland malt whisky distilleries. Glenglassaugh Distillery was established by James Moir & opened in 1875 on a site between the remains of Glassaugh windmill constructed in 1762 & the Craig Corn Mills. In an ideal location with barley & soft Speyside water to hand & sea breezes to pervade the distillery’s warehouses. When Glassaugh Station opened on the Moray Coastal Railway in 1884 Glenglassaugh Distillery gained speedy access the whisky blenders down south. This distillery was substantially re-built in 1959 & re-opened in 1960 only to closed in 1986. Glenglassaugh Distillery was purchased by the Scaent Group & back in production in December 2008. Visitors are welcomed at Glenglassaugh Distillery & tours are available by appointment. Nose: Exceptionally complex nose where citrus plays an important part & a gentle note of peat lingers in the background beside the oak & floral notes. Palate: The deep mouth is redolent with maturity & layered flavours of marmalade, dark chocolate, dried dates, Demerara sugar, peat & sweet spices. Velvet smooth across the palate. Finish: Long, attention-retaining, cappuccino flavoured finish.
