Description

This Glengoyne 8 Year Old "Pure Malt" Scotch Whisky is an official bottling from the early 1970s. Glengoyne distillery, established in 1833, is known for its unpeated whisky and slow distillation process. It is uniquely situated on the Highland/Lowland border, with stills in the Highlands and maturation warehouses in the Lowlands. The distillery emphasizes rigorous sherry cask selection.
