Glengoyne has revealed the third and final instalment of their Legacy Series, Glengoyne  The Legacy Series Chapter Three which continues to tell the unique stories of the people who have shaped the distillery over the last two centuries.

The Glengoyne Legacy Series Chapter Three is the story of Sir Arthur John Tedder, an Excise Officer at the distillery. Sir Tedder is said to have pioneered the distillery’s ‘unhurried’ approach to whisky making, shaping the whisky as it’s known today.

Sir Tedder was a resident at The Customs House at the Distillery between 1889 and 1893, a beautiful two-story building that is now used for malt intake.

The Glengoyne Legacy Series Chapter Three is a no age statement whisky which was matured in American oak sherry casks, it has been bottled un-chillfiltered at 48% ABV.

Barbara Turing, Glengoyne Brand Manager, said: "As our Legacy Series unfolds, each chapter represents an important part of our bold and unique history.

"Chapter Three is incredibly special and pays homage to Sir Tedder and the vital role he played in defining Glengoyne's commitment to unhurried excellence. Glengoyne Distillery is known for its dedication to craft and time, one which has led us to becoming an award-winning Scotch whisky, and we owe so much to Sir Tedder for that."

The Glengoyne Legacy Series Chapter Three has a RRP of £69.99 and you will find it available from specialist online whisky retailers such as The Whisky Exchange, The Whisky Shop and Master of Malt
