Exclusive to the Distillery and presented at full warehouse strength, this is a unique vatting of 5 young 1st fill sherry casks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUp until the early 1980s Glengoyne’s men were given three large drams of cask strength Glengoyne a day - breakfast, lunch and afternoon break.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnce a week the Brewer, Ron Low, and the excise men would select the best first fill sherry cask they could find to become that week’s dram. However, if the younger men didn’t want one of their drams they would pour it into the old copper teapot that sat in the rest room.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe more “seasoned” drinkers would then help themselves to additional drams from the teapot throughout the day – everyone was happy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Teapot Dram was created to encapsulate those days, and consists of five first fill sherry casks between the ages of nine and 11 years old. The Teapot Dram is bottled at cask strength and exclusive to Glengoyne Distillery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 24px;\"\u003eTASTING NOTES BY WHISKY MAGAZINE:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca class=\"source-serif text-3xl\" href=\"https:\/\/whiskymag.com\/contributors\/rob-allanson\/\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRob Allanson\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTASTER\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNose: \u003cem\u003eTakes me right back to church with polished pews and heavy old clothes.
