\nThe range introduces two new expressions: Glengoyne White Oak, which joins the brand\u2019s core expression range, and the limited edition Glengoyne White Oak 24-year-old.<\/strong><\/p>\n
The White Oak range \u2018marks a bold and exciting new chapter for Glengoyne, expanding its taste profile from the predominant Sherry style that Glengoyne is recognised for\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur dedication to the best quality wood imparts itself in every expression from Glengoyne, and the White Oak range is a celebration of exactly that,\u201d<\/em> said John Glass, master blender at Glengoyne.<\/p>\n \u201cI love Glengoyne in Bourbon wood; the distillery character balances wonderfully with the vanilla, coconut and spice from the casks, so I have been eager to create expressions that showcase this style.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Matured in American first-fill Bourbon and virgin oak casks sourced from North America, the range is a nod to the summer home of the geese that grace Glengoyne valley every winter.<\/p>\n The Glengoyne White Oak core expression offers aromas of \u2018vibrant oak, bright citrus, sponge cake, crisp red apple, ginger spice and a hint of violet\u2019 on the nose, followed by \u2018cr\u00e8me br\u00fbl\u00e9e, fruit gum sweets, candied lemon, jam tarts and tinned pineapple\u2019 on the palate.<\/p>\n The expression is offered at 47.8% ABV and retails worldwide at an RRP of \u00a355 (US$71). White Oak can be enjoyed neat or mixed in a Highball cocktail or Manhattan.<\/strong><\/p>\n Meanwhile, the limited edition 24-year-old White Oak offers aromas of \u2018vanilla, toasted oak, lemon curd, honey, plum jam, coconut, spiced apple pastry dusted with icing sugar and a zest of lime\u2019 on the nose. The palate reveals notes of \u2018lemon and key lime pie, honeycomb, tropical notes, soft oak, star anise, chocolate and vanilla\u2019.<\/p>\n The \u2018extremely rare\u2019, non-repeatable release is also bottled at 47.8% ABV and is available only through selected retailers worldwide as well as on the company\u2019s website for \u00a3430 (US$555).<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Glengoyne1.jpg\")
