Glen Garioch 15 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
The Home of Glen Garioch: Our little distillery sits right in the sheltered heart of the Valley of the Garioch, from which it takes its name.
The Most Easterly Distillery: Just 17 miles from Aberdeen in the very north-eastern tip of Scotland, Glen Garioch is the most easterly Scotch Whisky distillery not just in Scotland but the world. Precious few whisky travellers venture this far east in pursuit of the perfect dram, but those who do never turn back.
In fact, this is one of the oldest operating distilleries in Scotland. Moreover, its most easterly. In addition, Glen Garioch pronounced as Geery in the ancient Doric dialect still spoken in these part. Glen Garioch is making its mighty malt in the quaint and historic market town of Oldmeldrum. The town of Oldmeldrum is near Aberdeen in North East Scotland. Shielded from the world’s prying eyes, deep in the fertile ‘Granary of Aberdeenshire’. More importantly, we only produce in small, precious batches. In fact, Glen Garioch is a rare find indeed. However, warmly appreciated by those who like a hearty Highland malt and non chill-filtered as nature intended. It is also with a wholesome maltiness, honeyed sweetness and delicious creamy texture to savour.
Glen Garioch 15 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky – An old presentation bottling of Glen Garioch 15 Year Old. Another subtle, medium-bodied malt, with honey and rich fruity notes on the palate and a long, rounded finish with a trace of peat and spices.
A rich and complex bottling, the first in a series of four coming from the new era at Glen Garioch after it closed briefly in 1997. This comes from a combination of sherry and bourbon barrels and is unpeated (unlike pre-1997 Glen Gariochs)
