Description

Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 46%

Glen Scotia Double Cask is a delightful introduction to the often unfairly-overlooked 'other' Campbeltown distillery, with pleasing notes of sweetness and spices.

Bottled at a palate-friendly 46%, the whisky for Glen Scotia Double Cask started life in American oak before a finishing period in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks to add complexity and depth. At this price you really can't go wrong.

Tasting Notes

Official Tasting Notes

Nose: Very sweet. Initially, it is all creme caramel, caramelised fruit sugars, wood sugar, toffee and fudge before some apple and peach come through. In time, a charred note of bourbon with a pleasing dusty dryness. Has some power.

Palate:
Sweet start and quite fat. Though the alcohol gives a little tongue-tingling buzz, the result is a good mid-palate weight. The dry distillery character is still there, but there is now depth to counter. Water slightly dismantles the different elements but adds some dried mint.

Finish:
Deep and dark, with gentle spice.

Good at the price

As a fan of Glen Scotia I had to try this expression. At the price it clearly doesn't rank amoungst the best expressions I have tasted but look at the price of the Victoriana. The sherry barrel has contributed to quite a complex taste and doesn't dominate. It has fairly good body which pleases me.

Superb dram

I won't go into the wonderful smell and taste which are well essayed on numerous reviews. All I will say is that this a real belter, which I will buy again as soon as the bottle gets low. Absolutely fantastic!
