Glengoyne 25 years 2022 Limited Release
Matured exclusively in hand-selected sherry casks for a quarter of a century, this unique malt is an important addition to the Glengoyne collection. This bright amber beauty has red fruits, leather and brown sugar on the nose and soft oak, cinnamon, stewed fruits and a Seville marmalade tang on the palate. The finish is very long with spicy liquorice.
The malt is presented in a new heavy bespoke bottle and outer box. The bottle features a fine metal stopper, crafted cartouche and delicately branded neck tag and is attractively displayed in an oak box interior which includes an engraved plinth. The elegant exterior has a refined feather pattern subtly varnished on the pack.
Tasting Notes:
Appearance: Bright amber.
Nose: Red Fruits, old leather and brown sugar.
Palate: Soft oak, cinnamon, stewed fruits and a Seville marmalade tang.
Finish: Very long, with spicy liquorice, slowly drying.
Tasting notes Ruben Luyten - WhiskyNotes: Score 90/100
Nose: certainly less bulky than the 21 Years. This is more leathery, more elegant, with (slightly) more fruits, especially red berries. Cinnamon pastry. Figs and dates. Light hints of tobacco, Moscovado sugar and polished wood. Great balance.
Mouth: dark flavours like coffee and bitter chocolate, mixed with leather, oranges (and marmalade) and some herbal notes. A little burnt sugar. Still a nice juicy brightness of stewed fruits to cut through the heavy sherry. Some cedar and cinnamon powder, pipe tobacco and nuts towards the end.
Finish: long, still deeply sherried with nice tobacco and warm spices. Chocolate, walnuts and some peppery notes.
Perhaps slightly below the level of the Glengoyne 25 Years I tried last time, but still head and shoulders above the 21 Years in my book. Just more classic, more refined, and the higher strength helps it to shine. Pretty great whisky.
Glengoyne Distillery
Glengoyne Distillery is located at the foot of the Dumgoyne Hills, just north of Glasgow, on the border of the Scottish Highlands and Lowlands. Founded in 1833, Glengoyne is known for its traditional and artisanal approach to whisky production. The distillery is located in a picturesque setting, surrounded by green hills and the pure water of nearby springs.
A unique feature of Glengoyne is the use of air-dried barley, instead of the usual peat-drying process, resulting in a mild whisky without smokiness. Glengoyne whiskies are known for their rich, fruity flavour profile with notes of apple, pear, toffee and a subtle hint of spice. The slow distillation process and maturation in a combination of ex-bourbon and sherry casks contribute to the whiskies' complexity and depth.
Glengoyne prides itself on its eco-friendly approach and sustainable practices, such as the use of renewable energy. This distillery can no longer be ignored in the Scotch whisky landscape.
