Glen Garioch pronounced “Glen Geery” 12 Year Old is a richly characterful Highland single malt from one of Scotland’s oldest distilleries, and a whisky that consistently surprises and delights those who discover it. Founded in 1797 in the small market town of Oldmeldrum in Aberdeenshire, Glen Garioch (named after the fertile valley the Garioch in which it sits) has been producing whisky for over two centuries, making it one of the most historically significant distilleries in the Scottish Highlands.

Matured for 12 years in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks and bottled at a robust 48% without chill-filtration, Glen Garioch 12 is a whisky of genuine depth, warmth, and complexity a Highland malt with a distinctly rich, almost rustic character that sets it apart from the more delicate Speyside style. The nose is warm and inviting ripe orchard fruit, vanilla, and a generous honey sweetness open up to reveal notes of toasted oak, dried fruit, and a subtle floral heathery quality that speaks of its Aberdeenshire home. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and richly textured: toffee, dark fruit, soft malt, and a warming spice build with a satisfying depth and a gentle sweetness that makes it exceptionally rewarding to sip. The finish is long, warm, and gently drying dried fruit, toasted oak, and a lingering warmth fading slowly and memorably.

An honest, characterful Highland malt from one of Scotland’s most historic distilleries Glen Garioch 12 is a whisky that rewards those who seek it out.
