Unlike most other single malts Glengoyne has been preserving the essence of its flavour for decades by using air-dried barley rather than barley dried using harsh peat smoke. The result is a more subtle, complex whisky in which all of the delicate flavours are freely allowed to express themselves.

Glengoyne 10 Years Old
Review by Eye-lah Guy
- Color
- Sunny gold in the glass
- Nose
- Spicy vanilla and tree fruit
- Body
- Light with sheer legs
- Palate
- Initially a drop of sugared sherry, which gives way to honest grain, sweet buttery toasted malt, with returning sherry as subtle as I’ve tasted in a dram recently. The grain is sharp enough to introduce dryness that when paired with the sherry is both well balanced and quite unique.
- Finish
- The warm and medium finish sneaks up catlike, subtly rubbing against you with vanilla oak silkiness. A sugary afterglow ensues.
Excellent in it’s ability to conjure up multiple essences, none of which are anything less than quality; it’s a stealthy and effectual dram, highly recommended, especially for the price.

Not remarkable, as in very little stands out to be remarked on, but decent.
