Glengoyne Winter Solstice Revealed – Scotch Whisky News
In the embrace of the longest night, we find the promise of returning light.

As the shortest day of the year approaches, so does a moment of reflection and celebration. We are delighted to unveil the latest addition to our solstice series: Winter Solstice 2024.
Inspired by the depths of Winter, this exclusive single cask release has been drawn from a Glengoyne 2008 European Oak Sherry Hogshead. With a bottling strength of 59.9% ABV and a yield of only 285 bottles, this special release is available exclusively to Glengoyne Family Members at sunset on:
16th December, 15:44
(Five days prior to Solstice – but in time to arrive before Christmas!)
The tasting notes include a harmony of winter flavours:
Nose – Luxurious vanilla, treacle sponge pudding, chewy toffee, dark chocolate, cinnamon dusting, freshly toasted oak, thyme, dried orange and cherries, stewed peach
Palate – A medley of bright berries and dried fruits, sweet tropical notes, chopped almonds, homemade Christmas cake well-fed with Oloroso sherry, pleasant tannicity, hint of clove and roast coffee
Finish – Long, Oloroso sherry, trail mix, mouthwatering oak, dark chocolate ganache
