Glengoyne was founded in 1833 by George Connell as Burnfoot Distillery, positioned on the Highland Line between Highlands and Lowlands. The distillery is defined by its commitment to unpeated malt — a rarity in Scottish whisky that gives this 10-year-old a distinctly light, approachable character.
Matured without peat influence, this Highland single malt reveals fresh green apple, toffee, and subtle pecan notes. The spirit rests in bourbon and refill oak casks, allowing the natural malt character and gentle vanilla to emerge without heavy oak imposition.
On the nose, crisp apple and honey lead, followed by toffee and a whisper of cinnamon on the palate. The finish is short but clean, with malt sweetness and almond skin dryness lingering briefly. This is whisky for those who respect the craft of distillation — not the richest pour, but honest and unadorned.
