Talk:Glengoyne distillery

Still Game?
Is it worth mentioning that the distillery was used in the this show, when Jack and Victor disgraced themselves on a distillery tour? Glengoyne's official site seems to think it's notable - see ;) Camillus (talk) 12:13, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

I acme through looking to see if i would GA review it. I am still not sure but can I ask, why American English and not British. Maybe as simple as the first editor but I would like to know. Thanks, I will let you know if I can give the time to a GA. Edmund Patrick – confer 20:52, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Converted all the American English terms I could find to British English but I couldn't find that many (liter --> litre, distill --> distil). Maybe I'm missing something..

Unpeated
Unlike many malt whiskys Glengoyne does not use peat smoke to dry their barley but instead favours the use of warm air. Is this really very rare? I thought distilleries were about 50/50 on peat usage. Few Speysides and no Lowlands use peat. In the last few years it seems more distilleries are offering peated whiskies, but that's still a limited release. Arran, for example, just released a peated whisky, a few months ago, and that was their first, as far as I know. Unless you can say that most other distilleries use a tiny bit of peat. Oban, for example, has just a hint of it in their whiskies. But as far as most people know, there are peaty whiskies, and not-peaty whiskies, so the claim that Glengoyne is one of the few unpeated whiskies doesn't sound right. -Freekee (talk) 03:48, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it needs rewording to "unlike many highland malt...". As far as I'm aware highland malts traditionally use peat, much more so than lowland/speyside. Cabe  6403  (Talk•Sign) 08:57, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I think a general term like "many" would be acceptable. Most Speysides got away from peat when the technology "improved." Some Highlands did too. But there's also the matter of how much peat. It may be hard to find a Highland whisky without any, but there are many where it's just a touch. And I think there are a lot of Speysides that have that little bit of peat. -Freekee (talk) 19:46, 20 December 2012 (UTC)
