Glenglassaugh Portsoy is a heavily peated Highland single malt Scotch whisky, in a 70cl bottle at 49.1% ABV. It takes its name from the fishing village of Portsoy on the Moray Firth coast. The distillery stands on Sandend Bay in Aberdeenshire and was founded in 1875. The whisky is made from richly peated malted barley, distilled in copper pot stills and matured in sherry, bourbon and port casks in dunnage warehouses close to the North Sea. The nose combines sea air and bonfire smoke with mango, melon, toffee and milk chocolate. The palate has dark chocolate, charred pineapple, treacle and sea salt. The finish is long, with maritime peat smoke, peppery oak and stewed berries.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
