Matured for eight years in a bourbon cask the liquid is light gold in colour with a nose of pear drop and lemongrass with pineapple and lime in coconut cream. The tropical fruits continue on the palate and are joined by creamy vanilla with a lingering finish of oak spice.

Since 1875 the Glenglassaugh distillery has sat quietly on the edge of the picturesque Sandend Bay, breathing in the North Sea air which flows through its warehouses and invigorates its sweet Highland spirit with notes of the sea. Silent for a period of more than 20 years, the distillery was re-awakened in 2008 and its stills brought back to life.
