✨ Tekniske specifikationer

This expression represents a fascinating intersection of Glen Garioch's robust, honeyed Highland spirit and the art of independent bottling by Morrison & MacKay under their celebrated Crn Mr 'Strictly Limited' label. Distilled in the historic town of Oldmeldrum—where local legends whisper of ancient Pictish battles and fertile soils—this single malt was distilled in 2011 and matured for six years in select Sherry casks before being bottled in 2018. The sherry maturation imparts rich notes of dried fruits, warm spices, and dark chocolate to Glen Garioch's characteristic heather-honey and cereal-forward profile, offering a youthful yet remarkably deep and textured dram that honors the distillery's centuries-old legacy.

🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten

Glen Garioch blev grundlagt af Thomas Simpson i 1797 i den historiske markedsby Oldmeldrum og er et af Skotlands ældste fungerende destillerier. Beliggenheden i den frodige dal Valley of the Garioch i Aberdeenshire – historisk kendt som Skotlands kornkammer – giver destilleriet adgang til lokalt byg af højeste kvalitet samt rent, naturligt kildevand. I dag drives destilleriet under Beam Suntory, hvor man ufortrødent værner om det traditionelle håndværk i små partier for at fremhæve maltens renhed og den robuste karakter. Glen Garioch er anerkendt for fyldige Highland single malt-whiskies, der er kendetegnet ved dybe nuancer af lynghonning, friske plantagefrugter, varme krydderier og et komplekst fadpræg.
