✨ Tekniske specifikationer
This exceptional single cask expression was distilled at the historic Glen Garioch distillery in the fertile Garioch zone of Aberdeenshire, historically celebrated as the 'Granary of Scotland' for its superior barley. Selected and bottled by the independent bottler Single Cask Nation, Cask No. 2753 is a 9-year-old Highland single malt matured in a second-fill Bourbon hogshead. Distilled in December 2011 and bottled in September 2021, this release highlights the robust, waxen, and honeyed distillate characteristic of Glen Garioch, beautifully complemented by the gentle vanilla, orchard fruit, and soft oak spices imparted by the bourbon wood.
🍾 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.
