Embark on a tropical‐coastal odyssey with Glenglassaugh 41 Year Old – 1974 Rare Cask, Rum Hogshead #1282/1. Filled during the distillery’s golden seventies and drawn in September 2015, this spirit reposed for over four decades in a single Caribbean rum cask perched beside Sandend Bay. Only 184 bottles emerged—this being Bottle #1—each released at natural cask strength, non-chill-filtered and natural in colour. The long union of Highland malt and rum-soaked oak layers sun-ripened fruit, demerara sweetness and a whisper of sea-spray into a dram of rare elegance and exotic depth.

Why We Think You’ll Love It:

  • Single rum cask rarity—only 184 bottles worldwide, with this edition proudly numbered #1.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Lush pineapple compôte, candied lime peel and golden syrup intertwine with polished oak, soft beeswax and a teasing coastal brine. Palate: Silky floods of molasses toffee, ripe mango and coconut cream glide across the tongue, enlivened by vanilla pod, ginger warmth and a subtle maritime salinity. Finish: Long, warm and satin-smooth—lingering notes of rum-soaked raisin loaf, mellow oak spice and a final wisp of salted caramel.
