The rarity and excellence of a great Scotch whisky
Glenglassaugh, a distillery between land and sea
Nestled on Scotland’s northeast coast in the Highlands, the Glenglassaugh distillery draws its identity from its unique location. Founded in 1875, it benefits from an exceptional environment, with breathtaking views over Sandend Bay that directly inspire several of its creations. This region, renowned for its temperate climate and natural resources, offers ideal conditions for producing authentic whiskies with character.
Long dormant, the distillery was revived in 2008, gaining new modern facilities while honoring traditional methods. This renaissance marked a turning point for Glenglassaugh, which has established itself as a benchmark for lovers of artisanal whiskies. Its philosophy rests on the art of capturing the essence of Scottish terroir in every drop of whisky, a commitment evident in each of its cuvées.
A renowned whisky produced in limited quantities
From a single cask that previously held Pedro Ximénez Sherry, this Scotch whisky is the distillery’s rarest.
