Tasting Notes

Glengoyne 21 Year Old is a true gem, a testament to the skill and patience of the distillers. Aged for over two decades in first-fill European oak sherry casks, this single malt whisky unveils a symphony of flavors. On the nose, it entices with punchy oak notes, intertwined with the fragrance of potpourri and the tantalizing sweetness of cranberries and raspberries. Underneath, a subtle malty aroma and hints of figs add depth and complexity. The palate is a richly sherried delight, with tangy and spiced molasses, hot apple cider, and Christmas pudding infused with flaming brandy. A touch of cracked black peppercorns adds a delightful kick. The finish lingers, with the warmth of Oloroso sherry and a sweet, malty embrace. This exceptional whisky, a Double Gold medal winner at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2018, is a true masterpiece, showcasing the art of patient maturation and expert blending.
