Glenglassaugh Sandend: A Bright Coastal Highland Gem
Glenglassaugh Sandend is a vibrant, coastal single malt Scotch whisky that celebrates the rebirth of a historic Highland distillery. Named after the picturesque Sandend Bay near the distillery’s seaside location, this expression is crafted to reflect the lush, sunlit character of the region.
Matured in a combination of bourbon, sherry, and manzanilla casks, Sandend delivers a refreshing yet complex profile. On the nose, it opens with aromas of tropical fruit, sea spray, and creamy vanilla. The palate is silky and bright, featuring notes of banana, pineapple, salted caramel, and soft baking spices, all wrapped in a subtle maritime freshness. The finish is long and elegant, with lingering fruit, coastal minerality, and a hint of briny oak.
What makes Glenglassaugh Sandend so good is its harmony of fruit-forward sweetness and gentle coastal influence. It’s a whisky that feels alive — capturing the movement of wind, sea, and sun in liquid form. Under the guidance of Master Blender Dr. Rachel Barrie, Glenglassaugh has re-emerged as a modern Highland coastal distillery worth watching. Sandend is approachable, distinctive, and beautifully balanced — an excellent dram for those who appreciate nuance and a sense of place in their whisky.
