Product details
Glengoyne White Oak Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky marks a distinctive chapter for Glengoyne, with its maturation focused exclusively on first-fill bourbon casks and virgin oak casks sourced from North America. The casks are lightly charred for less than a minute, allowing the natural character of Glengoyne to remain at the forefront while drawing bright, expressive influences from the American oak. This focused cask selection creates a different expression within the Glengoyne range, emphasizing vibrant wood character and fresh citrus alongside the producer’s recognizable style. The combination of first-fill bourbon and virgin oak maturation gives White Oak a distinctive identity built around bright fruit, soft sweetness, and lively oak influence.
The nose brings vibrant wood, bright citrus, unripe banana, and a subtle hint of violets. The palate is soft and playful, revealing crème brûlée, fruit gums, and pineapple, while the finish develops a long, smooth character with notes of toffee apple. The progression from fresh citrus and floral nuances to tropical fruit and caramelized sweetness creates a bright, approachable profile with expressive oak character.
