One of the first bottling of Glen Scotia to be released for the Travel retail market, Campbeltown 1832 refers to the region in which the distillery resides, and the year the distillery was founded.

Dates, oatcakes and smoked cheese, with orange peel cutting through.
Salted caramel, cooked fruit (apple and strawberry), coastal smoke.
Sea salt and waves of honey.
