- Description
- This Highland single malt from Glengoyne was aged for 25 years in hand-selected first-fill sherry casks, originally released for the travel retail market. The first-fill sherry wood has imparted significant richness and sweetness to the distillery's characteristically unpeated spirit, creating a whisky with pronounced sherry-cask influence throughout.
