The pinnacle of the distillery's unhurried and uncompromising approach to whisky-making. An exceptional single malt, patiently matured for over five decades in a combination of American oak Sherry Casks and Refill Hogshead, only to obtain richness, depth of aromas and flavours rarely encountered. Glengoyne 50 Year Old comes in a luxurious crystal decanter, which features an engraved goose emblem representing the geese who migrate to the Glen each winter. Only 150 decanters have been produced, with each individually numbered. Hidden within the gorgeous solid oak and gold display box is also a 25ml sample of the 50-Year-Old whisky, as well as individually numbered books which are hand-signed by Robbie Hughes, Glengoyne Distillery Manager.
Tasting notes
Deep Amber
Demerara sugar, walnuts, sweet pipe tobacco, red apples and cloves
Rich, spicy oak burst, then molasses, treacle and liquorice take centre stage.
