Glen Scotia 10 Year Old Peated Scotch
| Description: | Glen Scotia 10 Year Old Peated Single Malt Scotch. Made with peat from North-East Scotland and matured in first fill bourbon barrels to reach the subltly smokey and maritime character of Glen Scotia 10 year old Peated. It is a perfectly balanced single malt with smouldering peat with briny influence, baked apple and cloves on the nose and flavors of lemon, vanilla syrup and fresh cut barley on the palate. It has a long and drying finish with gentle, sweet peat notes and black pepper. Campbeltown is a small town on the west coast of Scotland. It was once home to over thirty distilleries in the Victorian Era. Now only 3 distilleries have survived through to the present day. Situated in the heart of Campbeltown, Glen Scotia is one of the smallest distilleries in Scotland. The Scotch distillery was founded by the Galbraith family in 1832. In 2014, the petite facility was purchased by the Loch Lomond Group. The distillery is quite small scale, outfitted with two 12,000 and 16,000-liter stills, with distinctive onion shapes and horizontal lyne arms. Glen Scotia's line-up showcases their versatility, as they produced a range of peated and non-peated whiskies, two styles characteristic of Campbelltown, once known as the "whisky making capitol". Their malt is sourced from eastern Scotland, and crafted in open-topped, cast iron mash tuns, and their whiskies are processed with a variation in fermentation time yielding either nuttier, or fruitier malts. Their small-batch distillation process still maintains much of the original equipment designs dating back to the 1830s. |
