There’s a place where the land meets the sea. Where the senses are awakened, and sweet air mingles with a crack of sea salt. Where luscious waves of tropical fruit are carried on an ocean breeze. Until they come to rest, in a place of perfect harmony.
At Glenglassaugh, they harness the elements of these surroundings and bring them together to create exceptional coastal single malt whiskies. In every expression, you’ll experience rolling waves of flavour shaped by land and sea.
The neighbouring harbour village of Portsoy inspires the deep maritime flavour of this richly-peated single malt. Matured in sherry, bourbon and port casks, over time the full-bodied depth of Glenglassaugh Portsoy grows, harmoniously balanced with the rich coastal character of this peated spirit.
Nose: Rich maritime waves infused with tropical fruit and sherried dark soy, rolling into port with liquorice and sea kelp.
Palate: Full-bodied with dark chocolate, fermented soy and charred mango with treacle and a crack of sea salt.
Finish: Short to medium, although the warmth lingers pleasantly for a while in the throat.
