Description

The Glenglassaugh distillery has had a turbulent history, opening and closing no less than 7 times in 125 years. Currently owned by the BenRiach Distillery Company, the distillery's focus is now firmly on the single malt market. This 2009 vintage, 7-year-old Rare Cask Release was distilled in February 2009 and matured in a single Pedro Ximénez sherry puncheon (cask #R1160/4) until it was bottled in November 2016 at a cask strength of 54.7% ABV. This is a UK exclusive bottling, with an outturn of 704 bottles.
