Glen Scotia 7 Year Old (Medium Peated Ruby Port Finish) - Campbeltown Malts Festival 2026
It's time for another Campbeltown Malts Festival bottling! The annual limited-edition whiskies from Glen Scotia are always a welcome addition to our Glencairn glasses, and 2026 is no different. It's medium peated, aged initially in first-fill bourbon barrels and then finished in ruby Port casks for six months. The casks were selected to pay homage to historic trading routes.
A total of seven years ageing and a bottling strength of 53.9% ABV (with no chill-filtration or additional colour) means this one does not hold back. Expect all that rich, smoky maritime Campbeltown character plus a healthy dose of red fruit and cinnamon Port sweetness.
Tasting Note by The Producer
Nose
Opens with sweet peat, ripe red cherry and creamy vanilla fudge.
Palate
Bursting with juicy mandarin before indulgent blackcurrant jam and layers of rich smoky embers.
Finish
Warming cinnamon and clove spice, coastal salinity and lingering peat smoke.
