thanks Fred, really appreciate your kind words and the support of the channel! let us know if there are any brands/distilleries you'd like to see us visit next
Great video. I've visited many distilleries over the last 15 years or so, Glengoyne was the first one I ever went to. Haven't been for a few years, must go back soon, it's a lovely place and the whisky's not bad either!
thanks Josu, what a lovely comment! glad that you're with us now and very much looking forward to sharing more with you in the year to come. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and the very best start to 2025!
Great tour of what looks like a fabulous distillery! And one who knows exactly how and what they want to achieve. So clear in their processes to know they could make more but it would be to the detriment of there spirit. Another great episode!! Hope there’s lots more like this to come.
thanks for the support Greg, really appreciate you getting involved. and you can be sure that there's loads more coming - as I'm writing this we are currently on location in The Cotswolds and Ian is currently filming your next instalment of The Enthusiast Series! stay tuned my friend
Thanks Jake and team. An absolute cracking video of the whole Glengoyne distillery. With the two Gordons, it was Whisky Unscripted meets the Whisky Baron ! Great drams. 👍
great to see you know their podcast too! we were treated to a really special trip here so thanks for coming along for the ride with us Steve! sláinte pal
Another great video mate. Some great expressions come out of this distillery the 21 is a personal favourite, interesting to hear they are only 1 million litres and would have thought that would have been more.
they certainly stretch the million litres out very well! thanks for getting involved Bradley, great to hear our community are also enjoying this beautiful single malt
What a lovely tour, and credit to the staff for their input. Whilst I still have some Glengoyne in my collection (heels), I now see it as one of my gateway whiskies in the sherry matured domain. Also something I am unlikely to buy anymore. It suffers from being at 43%, and whilst we applaud the natural color there is no mention of chill filtration. There are so many other sherried whiskies to choose from now that are affordable and comparative, that Glengoyne no longer stands out.....I am thinking of Glendronach, Glenallachie, Edradour and Aberlour. Ultimately I think the marketers at Glengoyne should consider 46% and the return to a 750ml bottle size. When out and about, say at a bar or restaurant, I would have no hesitation in ordering a Glengoyne and would be confident in it. But with so many high quality sherry matured whiskies available, I don't see me buying any for my home collection, but lovely to see the distillery......thanks for a great video, cheers Charlie
thanks for tuning in and getting involved Charlie! shame to hear that our video hasn't reignited your love for Glengoyne though. I think if you have a try of their Teapot Dram which is currently on sale you might change your mind! sláinte
@ inspired by your video, maybe it’s time to go back to Glengoyne…. Thank you for the inspiration…. Just picked up a bottle of the 10 year and the Tine Capsule (50 mls of the 12,15 and Legacy).
Wonderful tour gents. I have to say, I was really impressed by their wall of progressive annual whisky’s. What an excellent way to demonstrate cask influence over time and the effects of time and angel share. Well done.
Looks like you had great day there and would love to sit and chat to the staff over a few Drams bet they would have some good whisky stories to tell thanks for going there
they absolutely do Liam! Gordon Dundas was a gent and shared so much on this tour, but Gordon Dallas is a real storyteller and he joined us for the Uncut pod which was awesome. thanks for tuning in and supporting the channel pal, sláinte!

Great episode again. Thanks. Stopped at Glengoyne when on our way to Campbeltown last march. Really like their whiskies. Have the CS, 21 and Teapot at home. Pure quality to enjoy.
so cool isn't it John. we have another piece of content from Warehouse 1 coming soon and I despite having lived it first hand, I'm genuinely beyond excited to see it again myself. sláinte pal
we were lucky enough to try the Teapot Batch 10 during our visit on Uncut and it's spectacular. I've personally purchased two and I'm fairly sure Stevie and Ian also grabbed one each
So which element has the greatest bearing on the colour of the liquid, the cask, or the previous fillings? I ask because Charlie Maclean's view is that the colour is only coming from the wood. But if that were the case, why doesn't the AO ex-Bourban casks impart a reddish Hue to the whiskies in the display?
colour does only come from wood. American Oak generally matures Bourbon first and then Scotch, so the colour is a slightly lighter golden than that of a Bourbon. European Oak generally matures sherry/wine, so the colours provided are slightly lighter ruby hues. hope that makes sense - the great thing about Glengoyne is it's all natural colour!
@TheWhiskyBaron maybe it's only wine that imparts the reddish colours. Only way to confirm is filling in virgin EO. At least from a colour perspective, it seems like the display suggests that extraction happens with time, I.e. longer in cask, darker the colour. But wouldn't that suggest it's just the wood that's imparting colour and not the colour of the previous liquid?
@@adhominemsis-t.australisensis no, you'll get the red from sherry also - in fact I don't think Glengoyne use any wine casks. you will get colour from fresh oak and. you'll get more again from charred casks, but the red hues are either directly related to previous fillings or they're the result of colour being added
Hey, greets form Germany. Your Content is gorgeous as always. Keep it on. But pleas groom your beard it doesn't match your appearance, would suite you much more :).
Thanks PG, glad you’re enjoying the content! It does need a bit of a trim here - I’ve sorted it since but it’s still a long enough beard so maybe not your preferred style!
Shame to hear you didn’t enjoy it - seems as though you thought the same about our Glenallachie tour, so I’m not sure why you’re putting yourself through the hardship of watching something you so clearly dislike. Out of interest, why do you think I’m aggressive?
Where on earth do you get the harsh and aggressiveness from?? If it’s not for you go find another channel to watch rather than leave a ridiculous comment.
The distilleries are lucky to have you guys visiting! You show the brands, their whisky and history with the passion it deserves!
