- Description
- Glengoyne's 36-year-old single malt, matured in a refill sherry butt personally selected by three generations of the Russell family who own the distillery, represents a rare continuity of craftsmanship across decades. The nose reveals strawberries, lime sherbet, mint, and lemon meringue pie, while the palate unfolds with tropical fruits, dried banana, chocolate, and creamy sherry spice. The extended maturation has built complexity and depth, with vanilla and oak providing structure beneath the fruit-forward character. This is a whisky for collectors and those seeking the refined, understated elegance Glengoyne is known for.
