Glengoyne's
newest single malt, the Legacy Series:
Chapter One picks up a Double Gold at
this year’s San Francisco World Spirits
Competition.
 Glengoyne
Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is
celebrating coming top at this year’s
San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
The Highland distillery collected a
Double Gold award at the internationally
acclaimed spirits awards this week for
its newest global release, The Glengoyne
Legacy Series: Chapter One.
The Glengoyne Legacy Series: Chapter One
was released to global markets in
February, representing the first in a
series of annual releases from Glengoyne
Distillery which proudly reveal the
tales that have shaped Glengoyne as it
is known today.
The prestigious San Francisco World
Spirits Competition is considered one of
the most respected, influential and
renowned spirits competitions in the
world.
The stringent judging process saw The
Glengoyne Legacy Series: Chapter One
blind tasted by an esteemed panel of
industry judges. The Double Gold medal
is the highest accolade in the San
Francisco World Spirits Competition,
only awarded to products deemed
‘exceptional’.
Founded in 2000, the San Francisco World
Spirits Competition is one of the
original competitions of its kind.
Almost 3,000 spirits were judged this
year—the largest number of entries in
the competition’s 19-year history.
Katy Macanna, Brand Manager for
Glengoyne, said: "To win such a
respected award in the San Francisco
World Spirits Competition is a glowing
testament to the quality of our first
release in The Glengoyne Legacy Series.
"The Glengoyne Legacy Series: Chapter
One has at its heart what Glengoyne
Distillery is known for – a sweet,
fruity spirit from the slowest
distillation in Scotland, the finest
sherry oak casks in existence and
stunning natural colour. Only two months
in, it is already proving to be one of
our most popular expressions globally,
and we are delighted to have been
recognised in such a significant way at
the highly regarded competition."
Glengoyne’s success in the San Francisco
World Spirits Competition is just the
latest in a winning year for the brand.
In May 2018, Glengoyne 30 Year Old was
awarded the Master medal at the Asian
Spirits Masters, with Gold awards going
to Glengoyne 21 Year Old and Glengoyne
25 Year Old. Glengoyne 21 Year Old also
scooped the esteemed Double Gold medal
at the 2018 San Francisco World Spirits
Competition.
This was followed in September 2018 by
double wins in The Spirits Business
Scotch Whisky Masters and the Luxury
Masters.
