"Glengoyne isn't just a product of the place, of course. It's also testimony to the skills and commitment of the people who have made it their life's work."

Warehouse Supervisor

Deek spends his days watching whisky sleeping. He is the custodian of our future and a man of great patience. As our casks breathe, 2 to 3% of the spirit disappears into the atmosphere each year, enveloping Deek on the way - perhaps that's what keeps him so well preserved.

Distillery Story:
"When I started working at Glengoyne 27 years ago my predecessor warned me about looking out for anyone trying to smuggle whisky out of the warehouses. He told me about an excise officer that used to work at Glengoyne many, many years ago. This particular officer had a very obvious limp and it was only after he had been working at the distillery for 10 years that the distillery manager worked out why he walked so oddly. It transpired that the excise man concealed a metal pipe down his left trouser leg, regularly filling it with whisky during his working days and taking it home with him."
