Glenglassaugh is nestled by the sea in the wild north-east of Scotland. Founded in 1875 by James Moir, it produces single malts influenced by the elements, giving our whiskies aromas that are naturally out of this world. Glenglassaugh reveals its new range to the world in 2023, and unveils some single malts distilled in the 1970s.
GLENGLASSAUGH, HEADING FOR THE UNEXPECTED
There's a place where sea and land meet. A place where the wind blows, the waves hit the shore and the sweetness of the air mixes with a hint of sea salt. Nestled on the shores of Sandend Bay in Scotland's rugged north-east, this place goes by the name of Glenglassaugh. It was here, at the end of the world, that the distillery was born in 1875, and where land, water, sea and spring water shape coastal Single Malts with extraordinary aromas.
Yet for over two decades, this hidden gem on the edge of Speyside and the Highlands remained silent. But in 2008, the Glenglassaugh distillery awoke once again, ready to reveal the singular character of its whiskies and their craftsmanship.
