Glen Garioch Distillery, Highlands
Glen Garioch (pronounced "Geery") distillery is on the road from Banff
to Aberdeen, at the quaintly named town of Old Meldrum, in the sheltered
Garioch valley.
The distillery, founded in 1798, is a chunky, stone building that looks in parts like a village school. It is very traditional in that it has floor maltings. In the oldest ages of Glen Garioch is the peaty style of malt, although this character is less evident in the younger versions.
The major part of the production is used in the blends of the Morisson Bowmore company, like Rob Roy.

Bottled at cask strength, this batch of Glen Garioch sees the return of peat to distinct Highland malt.

The nose is filled by the fresh and fragrant aroma of pear drops, orange fruit loaf, dark chocolate and toasted oak. Poached pears and sweet red apple fill the mouth before nuances of smoked oak begin to emerge. The aftertaste is of Seville orange zest with a pleasant wood spiciness. | ||||
