The road out the front of the distillery is known as the ‘Highland Line’ the division between the Highlands and Lowlands of Scotland. Established in 1833 as the ‘Burnfoot’ distillery it boasts a great range of aged single malt. Glengoyne Distillery translates to ‘Glen of the Wild Geese’. It has also been made famous by its place in the movie Angles’ Share
This whisky was introduced to the core range in 2014. Using unpeated barley and maturing the spirit for a quarter of a century in quality Sherry casks. It is bottled at 48% ABV and unchillfiltered. Simply superb.
