We also offer a range of whisky gift sets that every malt lover will be sure to enjoy.
The Glen Scotia distillery is famous for whisky that is made by history - single malts that have stood the tests of time - and we stand proudly among the last of the many Campbeltown Distilleries. Over centuries, all of our experience and knowledge has been distilled down into each and every Glen Scotia whisky. That's why every bottle tells its own story - and finds a way to become a part of your story too.
Distilled in the early 90s and aged for a quarter-century, our 25 year old single malt sure has a story to tell. An authentic single malt Campbeltown expression, delivering a unique maritime character with subtle sea spray and salinity, a unity of cask finishings, and harmony of different flavours.
We have taken great care in choosing the finest refill bourbon casks for the maturing process, followed by a 12 month finishing period in stunning first-fill bourbon casks. The cask the whisky is matured in plays a significant part in the overall flavour and brings those well-known flavours of vanilla, honey and caramel sweetness which pair perfectly with our maritime Campbeltown whisky.
There is a certain level of patience that comes from waiting 25 years before being able to enjoy the fruits of our labour. Whether we are maturing our whiskies for 3 years or 25 years, we want it to be enjoyed with the same sense of wonder - with the will to explore the variety of flavours found on the nose, the palate and the finish.
All that's left is for you to take that first sip.
