This bottling of a 23-year-old Glenury Royal single malt was produced by independent bottler Cadenhead, here in the so-called dumpy bottle that was common until 1989 (as CS until 1991). The whisky was distilled in 1966 and bottled at cask strength in 1990.
Glenury or Glenury Royal was a distillery in Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, which was founded in 1825 by Robert Barclay-Allardice. After several changes of ownership, the plant was overhauled in 1965 and the number of stills was increased to four. Operations ceased in 1985 and the buildings were demolished in 1993.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
