70cl / 55.30% - This vintage bottling of Glen Garioch is from the final year that the distillery peated its whisky before its temporary closure. When the distillery reopened it stopped peating its whisky and hence the style is different from what came before.

This includes expert help and advice from courteous and knowledgable staff - plus a free gift-wrapping service.

Matured in both bourbon and sherry casks since 1990. Bottled at cask strength.

The Glen Garioch Distillery, established in 1797, takes its name from the finest barleygrowing areas in scotland. Glen Garioch is one of the oldest distilleries, it is still a family run company and the traditinal skills have been passed down from father to son through the generations.

To taste, these distillates offer a myriad of intense, oily, phenolic and farmy characteristics with layers of wax, huge smoky notes, luscious fruit and endless further sub-complexities. These vintages for Oddbins are notorious and among some of the finest expressions of this historical Glen Garioch style.

Deep amber in hue, the first scents are reminiscent of nutty muesli, with chocolate chips and steamed cream. Behind this a hint of Elastoplast, gradually becoming faintly smoky. Very spicy to taste at full strength, spritzich and warming; dark chocolate lingers in the after-taste. Water settles it down. The nose now gains a fruity dimension (dried orange peel?), but overall it remains dense and elusive. The taste is sweet to start, with ‘Angel Dust’ on the tongue, traces of coconut, and a medium...

3cl / 55.30% - This vintage bottling of Glen Garioch is from the final year that the distillery peated its whisky before its temporary closure. When the distillery reopened it stopped peating its whisky and hence the style is different from what came before.

It has been a passion of mine for quite a while escaping on two wheels. Sometimes breaking free to anywhere, and other times making a concerted effort to get from A to B covering as much ground as pos...

70cl / 54.60% - This Glen Garioch was distilled in 1986 when the distillery still peated a proportion of its malt - something it stopped doing after it closed temporarily in the mid-1990's.

Sweet vanilla and butterscotch on the nose and palate with green apple fruit, skin and citrus on finish.

Crafted by John & Alexander Manson since 1797, this selection of Non Chill-Filtered Glen Garioch illustrates the distinct house Character - honey sweetness, hints of heather and just a touch of spice. Characterised with sweet vanilla, butterscotch & fresh green fruits, sweet butter cream and citrus cleanliness result in a fresh, gentle finish.

Glen Garioch is a staunch example of modern highland whisky and this Founders Reserve is the best window into the distillery character. A lovely mix of soft spices, subtle smoke, some waxiness and fuller, oilier fruit quality. A great everyday dram for those that would rather drink something with a little more oomph and character

The 12yo is a richer beast than the Founders Reserve. A mix of sherry and bourbon casks makes it more gingery, more biscuity and slightly fatter with some pleasant notes of green fruits and a gentle oiliness.

As usual for this provenance expect heaps of farmy, thick, oily peat, medicine, old tinned fruits, tropical characters and endless complexity. An absolute legend of a whisky.

Glen Garioch Founder's Reserve has hints of sweet vanilla & butterscotch along with ripe green apples and pink grapefruit. The palate is quite sweet with hints of vanilla & buttercream, the fruitiness from the green apple skins and citrus peel leave your palate clean and refreshed.

Excellent introduction to the re-launched Glen Garioch range. Lots of sweet flavours with a solid oaky underbelly.

Nose: Gentle and delicate, but very complex, with wet wool, bandages, liniment and faint smoke. Develops some orangey notes, like Cointreau or tangerine skin, some grapefruit and delicate hints of incense, like a joss stick in another room. A thread of coalsmoke or soot winds its way through what is an altogether captivating aroma. Becomes more oaky like old furniture - an old medicine cabinet, in fact.

A 1986 vintage whisky from Glen Garioch, revitalised in the 2000s and now getting the recognition that it deserves. This was aged for 25 years in a refill hogshead before bottling in late 2011 by Douglas Laing for their Old Malt Cask range - kudos to them for unearthing this little gem, as independent Glen Gariochs are rarer than hen's teeth.
