The Glenglassaugh distillery has had a turbulent history, 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, who purchased the distillery in 2013, the distillery's focus is now firmly on the single malt market.

A 1973 vintage Glenglassaugh released as part of the distillery's first batch of rare cask releases.

Bottled: 02.2014

Cask Type: Manzanilla Sherry Puncheon

52.1% ABV / 70cl

Bottle Number: 165 / 497
