One lucky group will get to taste Glengoyne’s 50-year-old whisky

GLENGOYNE will open a bottle of its oldest whisky, a 50-year-old Highland single malt, for one lucky group to enjoy next year.

Only 150 decanters of the £22,500 Scotch were filled.

An online ballot is running until 14 December for groups of five or more people to submit their entry, alongside a description of their “perfect moment” for savouring the whisky together next year.

The distillery said: “Whether it’s toasting a delayed celebration, or creating an unforgettable reunion, the Glengoyne team will make their special moment a reality, hand-delivering the highly sought-after whisky for one group to enjoy and savour, in good company.”

Robbie Hughes, master distiller at Glengoyne, added: “When we filled hand-selected oak casks with our sweet, fruity, new make spirit back in the late 1960s, The Beatles were only just breaking up, Richard Nixon was US President, and Sesame Street debuted on television.

“A lot has changed while we’ve been waiting patiently for this unique release.”
