This highly limited independent bottling under the Càrn Mòr 'Celebration of the Cask' range by Morrison & MacKay showcases a single cask expression of Glen Garioch. Distilled in 1991 and matured for 26 years before being bottled in 2017, this expression captures a historic era of the distillery. Glen Garioch, established in 1797 in the historic market town of Oldmeldrum, Aberdeenshire, is celebrated as one of Scotland's oldest operating distilleries. This 26-year-old malt highlights the distillery's traditional, robust Highland character, delivering a complex profile of rich honey, waxy orchard fruits, and warm baking spices that have developed over more than two decades of wood maturation. Bottled at cask strength without chill-filtration, it represents a pure, unadulterated snapshot of Highland distilling history.
🍾 wine.about_producer
Established in 1797 by John and Alexander Manson, Glen Garioch is one of Scotland's oldest operating distilleries, located in the historic market town of Oldmeldrum in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Now owned by Beam Suntory, the distillery is celebrated for its heritage and its recent return to traditional floor maltings and direct-fired heating for its copper pot stills. Glen Garioch is renowned for producing a robust, non-chill-filtered Highland single malt whisky, characterized by a rich, honeyed, and malt-forward profile with hints of heather, sweet spices, and, in its historic expressions, a delicate touch of peat smoke.
