✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Glen Garioch, nestled in the fertile Garioch valley of Aberdeenshire, has long been celebrated for its robust, deeply textured Highland spirits. Single cask releases, often designated as 'Full Cask' or by specific cask numbers like No 7366, represent the pinnacle of the distillery's artisanal output. These expressions are typically drawn from a single oak barrel, capturing an unfiltered, cask-strength snapshot of a specific distillation run. Historically, the distillery relied on local barley and the pristine waters of the Percock Hills, imparting a distinctively rich, honeyed, and heather-accented profile. This style of single cask bottling showcases the intense interaction between the heavy spirit and the wood, resulting in a complex dram layered with orchard fruits, warm spices, and a whisper of Highland peat smoke from the distillery's historic malting era.
🍾 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.
