✨ Technical Specifications

Hailing from one of Scotland's oldest licensed distilleries, established in 1797 in the historic market town of Oldmeldrum, Glen Garioch represents the robust, traditional heart of Highland single malt whisky. The 'Garioch' (pronounced 'Geery') is historically known as the 'Granary of Aberdeenshire,' famous for producing some of the finest barley in Scotland. Glen Garioch's single cask releases, often drawn from hand-selected oak barrels, offer an intimate glimpse into the distillery's rich, honeyed, and deeply malt-forward character. These expressions highlight the influence of traditional direct-fired copper pot stills and local water sources, resulting in a full-bodied spirit with notes of heather honey, warm spices, and a whisper of highland peat in older distillations.

🍾 About the Producer

Established in 1797 by Thomas Simpson in the historic market town of Oldmeldrum, Glen Garioch is one of the oldest operational distilleries in Scotland. Situated in the fertile Valley of the Garioch in Aberdeenshire, historically celebrated as the Granary of Scotland, the distillery leverages premium local barley and pure natural spring water. Now operating under the stewardship of Beam Suntory, the distillery maintains a steadfast dedication to traditional, small-batch craftsmanship that highlights malt purity and robust character. Glen Garioch is acclaimed for producing full-bodied Highland single malt whiskies marked by rich layers of heather honey, fresh orchard fruits, warm spices, and complex oak maturation.
