Glen Garioch 7 years old (D.2011, B.2019) Very Cloudy Signatory Vintage / 40% / 0.7l

“Very Cloudy” is an annex to “The Un-chillfiltered Collection” series by Signatory Vintage intended for the French market.

It consists of young single malts bottled at 40% ABV, unfiltered and with a natural colour, and no more than five casks are used for each release. After adding a few drops of water, these whiskies can take on a slightly cloudy appearance, which explains the name "Very Cloudy". The Glen Garioch presented here, distilled on 21st December 2011, spent over seven years in three bourbon casks (no. 4622-4624) and was bottled on 21st May 2019 for the Parisian distributor La Maison du Whisky. Glen Garioch Distillery is based in the eastern Highlands. It has been producing whisky since 1797, making it one of the oldest Scottish distilleries still in operation.
