Glengoyne 2020 Release Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 30 Year Old
Out of stock
Matured in hand-selected Sherry oak casks of exceptional character, this annual Glengoyne release of only 5200 bottles is the taste of 30 years, held in a single dram.
Their finest Sherry casks are left almost entirely to their own devices for 30 years. Almost, but not quite. Twice, perhaps three times in three decades, The Malt Master will taste this ongoing alchemy of cask and spirit.
His aim: to hand-select only the best Sherry oak casks. Each decade has added deep colour, intense flavour and limitless complexity to the precious contents. Only the best can become Glengoyne 30 Year Old.
On the Nose there is black cherry, sherry trifle, marmalade, tea rose, followed by rum & raisin chocolate. There is a burst of sweetness on the palate, changing quickly to plum compote, cinnamon, cloves and tangy marmalade.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep, burnished amber with mahogany-leaning edges and a copper-gold glow in the glass.
Nose
A luxurious nose of black cherry and sherry-trifle sweetness, with marmalade, tea rose and a sultry hint of rum-raisin chocolate.
Palate
A burst of sweetness on the palate gives way to plum compote with cinnamon and cloves, finishing with tangy marmalade that lingers.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish with lingering dark plum, marmalade and sherry-soaked fruit, wrapped in warming cinnamon and clove spice. A velvet drift of chocolate and toasted oak lingers as the sweetness fades into a refined, lasting warmth.
