Glengoyne 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

With a large proportion of its time resting in first fill sherry casks, this 18 year old has layers of red fruit and apples on the nose. Its full-bodied palate of cocoa and marmalade leads to a sublime long warming finish.

Slowest stills in Scotland

Glengoyne Distillery staff maintain that they run the slowest stills in Scotland and, according to their marketing, if there’s a slower way to do things they’ll find it. Their barley is air-dried, their casks are seasoned and prepared for six years and they like long and slow maturation times. This is the perfect starting position for Glengoyne 18-year-old, a bottle that first landed on retailer's shelves in 2012, replacing a 17-year-old bottle in a revamp that had previously been part of the core range.

The Highland Line

Glengoyne Distillery is located on the Highland Line and is said to straddle both Scotland's Highlands and Lowland regions. The stills are in the Highlands and the maturation warehouses are across the road in the lowlands. But from a personality perspective this is definitely a Highland pour.

Bottled at 43% ABV, it was matured in ex-bourbon and then spent a period of time in first-fill oloroso sherry casks. It has a beautiful gold colour and a rich and elegant glow.

Highland single malt whisky marries with refill sherry casks beautifully, letting that sherry cask influence bleed through the layers of single malt with notes of candied orange peel, custard creams and rich dark fruits.

This Highland single malt Scotch is a true special occasion pour. With a rich and spicy flavour, it builds on lots of fruit and sweet creamy layers. It’s a warming pour and, as you taste, the palate is flooded with honey, butterscotch, custard and caramel.

Tasting notes

Aroma

The official tasting notes reveal that on the nose you'll find lots of red apple, banana, and melon which then lead to notes of malted hot porridge laced with brown sugar.

Taste

On the palate look for lots more fruit plus nuts and sweet marzipan layered with spices, chocolate and bitter orange. Vanilla plays a part throughout here, locking in the rich, elegant personality of the Glengoyne 18-year-old.

Finish

The finish is suitably long and smooth, with lots of warming notes that reveal a remarkable single malt scotch whisky.

Glengoyne Core Collection

Glengoyne 18-year-old is one of a six-member family that includes a 10-, 12-, 15-,18- and a 21-year-old single malt Scotch whisky. In addition, they produce the Glengoyne Legacy Series as part of the core range. This is a small series of bottles with remarkable depth and personality that celebrate the distillery's history and impact.

For collectors, Glengoyne is a great distillery to explore and taste whisky from because it is also one of the more attractive and easily accessed distilleries in Scotland. The team has won awards for their welcome and the level of expertise behind their tours. Situated beneath Dumgoyne Hill with Loch Lomond nearby, Glengoyne is just 21 kilometres north of Glasgow.
