About GlengoyneScotland
Glengoyne distillery stands at Dumgoyne, north of Glasgow, on the Highland Line, with its stills in the Highlands and its warehouses across the road in the Lowlands. George Connell built it in 1833 as Burnfoot distillery, and it was sold in 1876 to the Lang Brothers of Glasgow before taking the Glengoyne name. Robertson and Baxter bought it in 1965, and Ian Macleod Distillers has owned it since 2003. Its single malt is unpeated, made with barley dried by warm air rather than peat smoke, and is known for slow distillation and sherry casks, a practice the distillery credits to its 1869 manager Cochrane Cartwright. Its limited releases include the Teapot Dram, named after a copper teapot where young workers left untouched drams for senior colleagues, and the Legacy Series, a run of chapters from 2019 to 2022 that each honoured a figure from the distillery's past.
