Glengoynes distinctive style carries on improving with age. The same elements are present at 17 years old as they were at 10, only now the balance has artfully changed. A more concentrated, equally well-balanced palate of flavours has emerged. Glengoyne Glengoyne Distillery was established as Burnfoot of Drumgoyne Distillery in 1833 by George Connel in Scotland’s Highland whisky region although its warehouses rest across the road in the Lowland whisky region. All the malt is dried by hot air & so all Glengoyne whisky is unpeated & on site maturation is in sherry & bourbon casks in addition to some Japanese & Scottish oak casks. Glengoyne Distillery has a visitor centre & offers distillery tours. On the nose some sherry, Christmas pudding. Plenty of fruit
- raisins, ripe apples & tinned oranges in syrup. The taste is malty, treacle, slightly nutty. Orange peel, apple compot.
