Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

DESCRIPTION

A remarkable 1973 vintage Highland single malt, this Glenglassaugh 40 Year Old was distilled during a bygone era of Scotch whisky production and matured for over four decades before being personally selected by renowned Master Distiller Billy Walker.

Produced from Glenglassaugh’s historic pre-closure stocks, this rare expression captures the character of a distillery and vintage that can never be recreated. Bottled in 2013 at natural colour and non-chill filtered, it stands as a testament to the exceptional quality of mature 1970s Scotch whisky.

Why This Bottle Matters

The early 1970s are regarded by many collectors as one of the most desirable periods in Scotch whisky history. Distilled in 1973, this whisky spent 40 years quietly maturing before being released in limited quantities, making it both a piece of whisky history and a highly collectible expression.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: An abundance of sweet tropical fruits with notes of ripe banana, pineapple and mango, complemented by gentle Oloroso sherry influence.

Palate: Rich, syrupy and beautifully complex. Layers of Oloroso sherry, toffee apples, mango and banana are balanced by warming ginger and cocoa spice.

Finish: Long and luxurious with lingering rich sherry sweetness and delicate spice.
