Migrating flocks of geese give this Scotch's home its name: Glen of the Geese or, in Gaelic, "Glen Guin."
Patience is rewarded. Glengoyne claims that for every minute that other whiskies spend in stills, theirs spends three. Only then is it transferred to casks, themselves prepared for six years. This is the Glengoyne way.
The result is a gloriously golden, clean whisky with a bright flavor profile and malty finish. Notes of fresh green apples, toffee, a hint of nuttiness, with a touch of soft oak.
The geese have inspired more than just the whisky's name. Glengoyne is proud to be the slowest whisky distiller in Scotland and, like the geese, the distillery is guided by an unwavering clarity of purpose. "Sometimes the right way is the long way."
