Glenglassaugh Sandend is a vibrant and coastal-inspired Highland single malt Scotch whisky, crafted at the Glenglassaugh Distillery. Named after the beautiful Sandend Bay, whose crescent shoreline lies just moments from the distillery, this expression captures the essence of its seaside location through a carefully curated triple cask maturation.

Matured in a combination of bourbon, sherry, and Manzanilla casks, Sandend delivers a bright and refreshing profile layered with tropical fruit, creamy sweetness, and a subtle maritime influence. The inclusion of Manzanilla—a coastal Spanish sherry—adds a distinctive saline freshness, perfectly complementing Glenglassaugh’s naturally fruity spirit.

Demonstrating remarkable resilience, the distillery resumed operations in December 2008 and is now proudly owned by Brown-Forman of America. Today, Glenglassaugh continues to craft exceptional single malt Scotch whiskies, blending traditional distilling techniques with modern innovation, making it a beloved choice among whisky enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.
