Hailing from one of Scotland's oldest distilleries established in 1797, the Glen Garioch 21 Year Old Full Strength is a testament to the rich agricultural heritage of the Garioch zone in Aberdeenshire, often called the 'Granary of Aberdeenshire' for its superb barley. This expression showcases the distillery's historic style, characterized by traditional direct-fired stills and local peat. Aged for 21 years, this Highland single malt delivers a remarkably robust, oily texture with notes of heather honey, rich oak, sweet spices, and a delicate thread of peat smoke, preserved beautifully at a full strength of 50% ABV.
