Introduction & Overview

Glengoyne Distillery presents a new release in support of the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust with the Glengoyne 2009 The Wetlands Single Cask .

Continuing their commitment to conservation, Glengoyne channels the spirit of craftsmanship and environmental awareness through this expressive single malt.
