The Glengoyne Cask Strength Unhurried Since 1833 Sherry Casks & Bourbon Barrel Batch 008 is a single malt whisky bottled at an impressive 59.2% ABV. This meticulously crafted whisky is matured in a unique combination of casks: one third sherry casks, two thirds refill casks, and a small portion in bourbon barrels. This intricate cask selection imparts a rich and bold flavor profile, featuring notes of ripe banana, digestive biscuits, cinnamon, vanilla, peach, nutmeg, almonds, caramel, ginger, and oak.
Originating from the renowned Glengoyne distillery in Dumgoyne, which has been unhurriedly producing whisky since its founding in 1833, this distillation is a hallmark of Highland craftsmanship. Despite its Highland location, the whisky matures in the Lowlands, adding a unique twist to its character. Glengoyne is notable for its use of warm air instead of peat smoke to dry the barley, ensuring a pure and untainted flavor. Batch 008 is the eighth edition in the Glengoyne Cask Strength Releases, and it stands out as part of a series of four paintings by Jolomo.
This whisky is un-chillfiltered, unfussed, and untamed, offering a taste experience that mirrors the raw essence of opening a cask. The nose is soft and sweet, leading to a rich and full-bodied palate with a delightful, lingering, oak-infused finish. Glengoyne Cask Strength Batch 008 is a true representation of the high-quality single malt whisky produced by the Glengoyne distillery.
