Description
By definition, a 'Glen' is a small valley. As it turns out, although it originally referred to Glens in Scotland and Ireland, today, the term is applied to any small valley, wherever it may be found, such as in the Highlands of Cape Breton. Inevitably, the Canadian distillery of Glenora became subject to a lawsuit over its right to use the word Glen in a trade mark. The battle was fought, all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada, and when the smoke had cleared away, it was the Canadian whisky-maker that emerged victorious. To match a growing reputation as the 'Black Sheep' of the whisky world, a whisky with a darker expression was essential. So was born The Dark Glen. Gleann Dubh is ours and this Glen is definitely dark. Enjoy The Dark Glen.
