- Description
- This 1980s distillery bottling of Glen Garioch 10yo represents the distillery during a strong production period, presented at 40% ABV in a vintage format. Glen Garioch from the 1970s vintage typically shows orchard fruit and subtle spice with a clean, malty backbone characteristic of the Aberdeenshire distillery. A period piece that reflects the lighter, drier style of 1980s Scottish whisky bottling. Best enjoyed by those who appreciate vintage presentation and historical context.
