✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Glen Garioch, nestled in the historic valley of the Garioch in Aberdeenshire, is famed for its robust, deeply textured Highland single malts. The Cask 3060 represents their highly coveted single cask program, where individual casks are selected by the master blender to showcase the purest expression of the distillery's character. Historically, Glen Garioch utilized local peat and traditional floor maltings, yielding a spirit with a distinctively rich, honeyed, and subtly smoky profile. Single cask releases like Cask 3060 highlight this heritage, offering an un-chill-filtered glimpse into the interaction between the distillery's heavy, waxy spirit and the oak. These expressions are celebrated for their notes of heather honey, toasted cereal, warm spices, and a whisper of Highland peat smoke, reflecting over two centuries of Aberdeenshire distilling craft.
🍾 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.
