Nestled in the historic Garioch lands of Aberdeenshire, Glen Garioch is celebrated as one of Scotland's oldest distilleries, dating back to 1797. The 'Full Cask' single barrel releases represent the pinnacle of their traditional Highland craft, highlighting the unique interaction between the distillery's robust, honeyed spirit and individual oak casks. Historically utilizing local barley from the 'Granary of Aberdeenshire' and pure water from the nearby Percock Hills, Glen Garioch's single casks are prized for their rich, oily texture, sweet maltiness, and deep heather-honey notes. These single barrel selections showcase the unadulterated character of a single distillation run, capturing a fleeting moment in the distillery's long, storied history.

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.
