Glengoyne 30
year old returns with a batch of 5,200
bottles in the second release of the
mature sherried dram.
 Glengoyne distillery has announced the
release of a second edition of the
Glengoyne 30 Year Old.
The new Glengoyne 30 Year Old 2018
Edition (as it was bottled at the end of
last year) follows on from the first
release back in 2017 but this time
around there are only 5,200 of the 30
Year Old available in this new release
which is 800 bottles less than the first
release.
Once again the Glengoyne 30 Year Old has
been produced using a combination of first fill and
refill sherry butts, 12 sherry casks in
total, 33% first fill
European oak sherry butts and 66%
specially selected refill sherry butts.
Bottled at 46.8% ABV, non chill-filtered
and naturally coloured it is described
as having a rich, complex flavour
profile, with notes of cinnamon, cloves
and tangy marmalade, this will no doubt
appeal to the sherried whisky fans
amongst you but as you can imagine you
will need deep pockets to get a hold of
a bottle which has a price tag of £700
for a 70cl bottle.
As you would expect with an original
distillery bottling of this age it is
presented in premium packaging, a solid
oak box, featuring an oak and rose gold
bung and a hessian square, the outer
casing reflects the traditional cask
sampling method employed by Glengoyne
Distillery.
The new Glengoyne 30 Year Old 2018
Edition will be available from
specialist online whisky retailers such
The Whisky Exchange and
Master of
Malt
