Tasting Notes

One of the truly remarkable gems from the Glen Garioch distillery, this 32-year-old single malt is a testament to the craftsmanship and passion that went into its creation in 1988. Matured in a single bourbon barrel, this whisky has spent three decades patiently evolving, developing a depth of character that can only be achieved through such extended aging. Bottled in 2021 as part of the Family Reserve series from Càrn Mòr, this release holds a special connection – the cask was hand-selected by Brian Morrison, whose family once owned the distillery during its heyday. With its roots firmly planted in Glen Garioch's tradition of in-house malting and peating, this whisky offers a rare glimpse into the distillery's past, capturing the essence of the time when it was a trailblazer in the industry. A true masterpiece, this 32-year-old is a must-try for any whisky enthusiast seeking an exceptional dram with a rich history and unparalleled depth of flavor.
