Always popular with blenders, single malt releases were limited for most of its very irregular working life. Currently owned by the BenRiach Distillery Company, which purchased the distillery in 2013, the distillery's focus is now firmly on the single malt market.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe BenRiach Distillery Company have been spending recent years trying to overturn Glenglassaugh's lack of presence in the malt market - not helped by the fact that no whisky produced at the distillery from 1986 to 2008 - and attempt to make it as well-known as their other distilleries, BenRiach and GlenDronach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis expression was released to mark 20 years since the launch of WhiskyAuction.com.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDistilled: 1978\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBottled: May 2015\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAge: 36 Year Old\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCask Type: Pedro Ximenez puncheon\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBottle Number: 150 \/ 314s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCask Number: 2053 \/ 2344\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e41.2% ABV \/ 70cl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis product is not to be purchased by anyone under the age of 18 or drinking age in their country.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe reserve the right to ask for your identification should it be necessary to do so.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glenglassaugh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54687014912325,"sku":"5060399681971","price":1299.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/9495\/8661\/files\/4206007202.jpg?v=1746548735","url":"https:\/\/b1yyjg-bk.myshopify.com\/products\/glenglassaugh-36-year-old-1978-rare-cask-70cl","provider":"Whisky Situation Old","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
