Glen Scotia Campbeltown Single Malt Scotch Whisky 15 Year Old

(glen-SCO-sha) Glen Scotia was founded in 1832 in Campbeltown, originally under the name Scotia, and is one of only three surviving distilleries in a town that was once known as the whisky capital of the world. It was built by Stewart, Galbraith & Co., later passed through a number of owners, and survived the long collapse of Campbeltown whisky when most of the town’s distilleries disappeared. Its 20th-century history was not especially smooth either, with closures and intermittent production before a return to regular operation by 1999.
