Glenglassaugh Distillery
Glenglassaugh Distillery
Set above the shores of Sandend Bay, Glenglassaugh is a distillery defined by its coastal setting and quietly distinctive character. Here, sea air, mineral-rich spring water, and the rhythm of the north-east coast shape a Highland single malt with freshness, texture, and depth. For guests drawn to place as much as flavour, Glenglassaugh offers an experience that feels atmospheric, intimate, and deeply connected to its surroundings.
Flavour
Lush and coastal, with notes of tropical fruit, soft sweetness, ripe character, oak, and a gentle crack of sea salt.
Heritage
Founded in 1875 by Colonel James Moir, Glenglassaugh has a story shaped by revival and resilience, from early success and long silence to its rebirth as one of Scotland’s distinctive coastal distilleries.
Experience
Enjoy Glenglassaugh through private access only, with intimate tastings on Sandend beach and bespoke distillery visits that can be tailored into a more personal and immersive coastal whisky experience.
