Glengoyne launch two new Limited Edition Single Cask Malts

The new 13 Years Old and 23 Years Old Glengoyne Highland Single Malts were handpicked by a team of experts at Glengoyne before being personally approved and signed by Distillery Manager, Robbie Hughes. The new limited editions are in responseglengoyne-13-and-23-year-old-whiskies to growing demand from Glengoyne enthusiasts, curious to discover new expressions from the highly respected distillery.

Both limited edition single malts bring their own unique characteristics to the Glengoyne range, enhancing its famed reputation as the Real Taste of Malt, untainted by peat smoke. Presented in a handcrafted dark wood presentation box, showcasing its deep amber colour, the 13 Years Old has a nose of ripe strawberry and banana, molasses, hazelnut and a hint of mint. The palate opens with spice, before liquorice, milk chocolate and toffee overtake, slowly moving around the tongue and pleasantly lingering with sherried flavours and nut oils.

Displayed in a varnished oak case with copper plate, the 23 Years Old Single Malt has the appearance of old gold and a fresh nose of lemon sherbet and champit neeps, accompanied with oily, rich butter and freshly ground black pepper. The malt offers an elegant palate of crème brûlée with a grapefruit and custardy sweetness, before a long finish of burnt sugar and short crust pastry.

Well these two bottlings look fabulous, and as we have visited this grand Distillery on a couple of occasions we can tell all that these will be a wee bit special, the price though may be a wee tad out of the reach of the Whisky Boys purse, but if we see any of these drams on a gantry we will certainly give them a wee tasting or two.

Well done all at Glengoyne they do look very very nice indeed.
