Glen Garioch is one of those odd-man-out distilleries. It's actually quite widely known, but at the same time seems to be shamefully overlooked. The truth is that the core range is just ok. But if you want to peek under the hood and see just how much muscle Glen Garioch actually has, you have to turn to the independent bottlers nowadays. This Whisky Agency/Heads & Tails joint venture is case in point. You're not going to find a more pure representation than a single cask, matured in ex-Bourbon Barrels, bottled completely unadulterated, and at natural cask strength.
Specs: Distilled in 2009, bottled in 2021 at 12 years old. Natural colour, non chill-filtered, and 53.2%.

Much like Ardbeg before them, Glen Garioch is telling the tale of their rebirth (Renaissance, if you will) through a four part series that showcases the distillery's coming of age after it found life again as part of Beam Suntory's portfolio back in 1997.
This 18-year-old - the culmination of the 'story' that began with 15, 16, and 17-year-old expressions - was built upon a marriage of ex-Bourbon and ex-Sherry casks and is meant to exemplify the distillery's new(ish) house style. All we can say is...well done, folks.

Distilled in 2008, this 13 year old Glen Garioch was matured in a Refill Hogshead cask, and has been bottled at 50%, as is common practice for the Old Malt Cask Range.
