DESCRIPTION
18 YEAR OLD
AROMATIC & SPICY
An exceptional single malt whisky, matured for 17 years in refill bourbon casks and refill American Oak hogsheads.
The finest casks are personally selected by our Master Blender and are vatted together for a 12 month finish in first fill Oloroso casks. Unpeated, floral, aromatic and elegant, with hints of sea spray and spice.
Records as far back as the 1800’s show that Campbeltown, like much of Scotland, has enjoyed a long-standing love affair with the use of sherry casks in whisky maturation. Given its fortunate location on the West Coast of Scotland and ease of access to the sea trading routes of the time, it is hardly surprising then that Campbeltown enjoyed the first choice of some of the finest sherry casks in the world. So it is fitting that one of our oldest and most refined expressions, the Glen Scotia 18-year-old, enjoys a lengthy twelve-month finish in Oloroso sherry casks, delivering a floral sweetness whilst never masking our renowned distillery character that lies beneath.
