✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the historic Valley of the Garioch in Aberdeenshire, one of Scotland's oldest distilleries presents a testament to traditional Highland craftsmanship. This single malt, matured in a refill bourbon barrel (Cask No. 2543), showcases the distillery's signature robust and honeyed distillate. By utilizing a refill barrel, the wood influence is beautifully restrained, allowing the natural characteristics of the local barley—grown in the fertile 'Granary of Aberdeenshire'—to take center stage. Expect a profile rich in heather honey, creamy malt, green apples, and a subtle, lingering warmth that speaks to the historic direct-fired stills of this legendary distillery.
🍾 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.
