Glengoyne is one of the leading premium malt whiskies in the world.An award winning malt, it's the product of an unconventional process, remarkable ingredients and the pride and passion of its people. Unlike most other single malts Glengoyne has been preserving the essence of its flavour for decades by using air-dried barley rather than barley dried using harsh peat smoke.The result is a more subtle, complex whisky in which all of the delicate flavours are freely allowed to express themselves.
Glengoyne's distinctive style carries on improving with age. The same elements are present at 17 years old as they were at 10, only now the balance has artfully changed. A more concentrated, equally well-balanced palate of flavours has emerged, though it still retains the same clean, delicate taste as the 10 Years Old.
