On the palate, flavours of dried fruits, toffee, and a hint of saltiness emerge, harmonizing with an oaky backbone. The finish is relatively short, with lingering touches of nutty sherry and a dash of spice. Bottled at a strength that highlights its character, this whisky presents an intriguing balance of maritime and sherry influences.

Small, but perfectly formed
One of the smallest single malt distilleries in Scotland, Glen Scotia was founded in Campbeltown, at the tail of the Kintyre peninsula, in 1832. Originally known simply as ‘Scotia Distillery, it is one of only three distilleries remaining in the town, which was considered by many the ‘whisky capital of the world’ until the collapse occasioned by US prohibition.
While over the years the process of making Glen Scotia whisky may have changed – with longer fermentation and vatting of the malted barley, as well as a slower, more precise distillation – the distillery retains much of its original spirit, and indeed equipment – the distillery’s fermenters, stillroom and dunnage warehouse all date from the 1830s.
Both peated and non-peated styles of Glen Scotia single malt are produced, the classic house style being relatively light and grassy, with hints of smoke and brine.
