Glengoyne 1972 Spring Release

Built in 1833, what is now known as Glengoyne is a Highland distillery so close to the Lowland region border that its warehouses across the road actually fall into the latter geographical category. The distillery was owned by the Lang Brothers for 89 years, who used it as provision for their blends. In that time it was also important to those of Robertson & Baxter, who would eventually acquire the site in 1966, a move that would eventually bring it into the hands of the Edrington company, who launched it as a single malt brand in the early 1990s, although occasional distillery bottlings had previously been produced. Glengoyne was sold to Ian Macleod Distillers in 2003.

This is the Spring release of 1972 vintage Glengoyne, matured for 29 years and then bottled in 2002.
