The first bottling of The Legacy Series was Chapter One. This first release honours Cochrane Cartwright, the legendary distillery manager who transformed the distillery in 1869 by slowing the stills, making them the slowest in Scotland, and introducing sherry cask maturation to Glengoyne. These changes brought a remarkable amplification of the sweet, fruity characteristics for which Glengoyne is now renowned.
Chapter One has been matured in first fill European oak Oloroso sherry casks, representing those precious sherry casks that Cochrane Cartwright first brought to Glengoyne. The combination of those with our prized refill casks allow the iconic sweet, fruity house style of Glengoyne Distillery, as established by Cartwright, to shine through. Bottled un-chillfiltered at 48%, the Highland Single Malt’s deep amber hue is imparted from time and wood alone.
