Glen Scotia
Scotland
Single Malt
Classic Campbeltown single malt matured in first-fill bourbon barrels before a finishing period spent in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. A wonderful introduction to the delights of this great distillery, and frankly just a great whisky with a pleasing toffee core and rich depth.
Vibrant fruit emerges first (peach flesh and green apple peels), followed by chewy vanilla fudge, a hint of salinity, then an array of oak-y spices including some char.
Opens with more fudge with a little dusting of powdered sugar. Powerful, oily and a touch herbaceous with some German brandy character.
Sherried notes come through more on the finish.
A bit of a disappointment, this one. It’s harsh tasting without any of the redeeming features you’d find across the water on Islay. At the same time it’s a bit generic, a little nondescript. Look, it’s s decent single malt so it’s ok. But in the pantheon of Scotch it’s nothing special. I’ll certainly finish the bottle but I won’t buy another one.
Brilliant value for money ??
I had this one a few years ago, and always wanted another bottle as it left a great impression. Got one for Christmas 2021, and it has an odd sour flavor. I shared some with a friend, and we both looked at each other with a strange face. I'm really disappointed that it doesn't come anywhere near the memory ...
Not much to smell - perhaps a subtle whiff of wee Taste is malted barley with a bit of burn. Short very dry finish I found this incredibly bland for a single malt. I really wondered what the point was. Highland Park would offer much more for similar money
FIRST time I sat and had a dram of any Glen Scotia. It's a fair dram for that sort money. At 46% it has what is required from a dram . . Oily and thick too . It hits the spot . Well worth it .
