Our single-owner consignor is a couple from the Greater Toronto Area who have travelled the world collecting fine wine and spirits. The spirits for this auction were sourced both through licensed retailers in Canada and abroad. They have taken great care to store their spirits properly, upright in temperature/humidity-controlled home cellar away from sunlight. Preferring to remain anonymous, our consignor couple has a passion to collect rare and valuable bottles from different regions, eras, and styles. They both enjoy scotch whisky especially and started collecting out of curiosity and appreciation of the history and complexity of the spirit. As true collectors they share their spirits and travel stories with friends, family and those who want to learn about the spirit.
Bottle 1 of 470 . A bottle of Glenglassaugh 37 Year Old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky, part of the Master Distillers' Selection Series. This was distilled in 1974, matured in a sherry cask and bottled at a cask strength of 56% ABV in 2011. One of 470 bottles, exclusively selected and bottled for the North American market.
The Glenglassaugh distillery has had a turbulent history since being founded by James Moir in 1873, opening and closing no less than 7 times in 125 years. Always popular with blenders, single malt releases were limited for most of its very irregular working life. Currently owned by the BenRiach Distillery Company, which purchased the distillery in 2013, the distillery's focus is now firmly on the single malt market.
Tasting Notes
Nose-Rich, sherry flavor that is accented by notes of bananas, toffee and plantains.
Palate-Initial flavor gives way to notes dark chocolate, dates and berries.
Finish-A warming finish with touches of spice.
