Glengoyne 10 year old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Highland region, Southwest district. Founded in 1833 by George Connell

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 subtler, complex whisky in which all of the delicate flavours are freely allowed to express themselves.
