About brand
Glenglassaugh Distillery, at the east end of the beautiful Sandend Bay, was founded by Col. James Moir in 1875. He quickly established a reputation for making a quality whisky and the company prospered.
He ran the distillery with his two nephews until 1892, when Glenglassaugh was purchased by Highland Distillers. After being completely re-built in 1960, the distillery continued to produce whisky until 1986 when it was mothballed.
The distillery sat silent for over 20 years until it was purchased by a group of investors and started production again in December 2008. In 2013, the BenRiach Distillery Company took over Glenglassaugh distillery with the intention to bring this iconic distillery fully back to life by giving it the investment, commitment and care it deserves.
Glenglassaugh is produced using the highest quality of Scottish barley and traditional distilling methods, our key focus being on quality. While many distilleries have become highly automated, here at Glenglassaugh our spirit is still handcrafted by a small, highly skilled team dedicated to creating the highest quality product. Only the finest casks are selected to slowly mature our precious spirit in our coastal warehouses until it is ready.

Dictador Best of 1972 Apasionado
Every shot of our delicate Rum served is brimming with the full fiery passion of our Latin land, bringing a piece of our burning culture to your lips. We encapsulate the sweet essence of our rums after distillation by implementing the unique method of adding reduced sugar cane juice to our old barrels. In doing so we bring the huge, concentrated flavours and dark caramel colour and flavour to our rums without affecting the residual sweetness of the end product. Latin culture embraces life, and we follow this credo by embracing new techniques to bring luxury to this age-old spirit.
These bottles are part of a limited series – so be one of the lucky few to discover this unique and incredibly rare rum.
