Glen Scotia Old Malt Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky 18 Year Old · 1992 Vintage
Out of stock
A rather nice older bottling of Glen Scotia from Hunter Laing as part of the Old Malt Cask range. Distilled in 1992 and matured in a single Sherry cask for 18 years, released in 2010. Rather interesingly this older expression came out at a time when the standard distillery bottling was just a 16 year.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep coppery amber with mahogany edges and a warm, rich glow.
Nose
Sherry-soaked and alluring, this pours with dried fig, raisin and plum, layered over toffee and dark chocolate. Spices—cinnamon, clove—and orange zest fan out over velvety oak, with toasted almond notes. A faint sea breeze and subtle smoke thread through the aroma, giving a maritime lift as the perfume settles into a rich, confectionery finish.
Palate
Opulent, sherry-kissed on the palate, with dark fruit compote—figs, raisins, dates—woven with cocoa, toasted almond and a whisper of toffee. Cinnamon and clove spice drift over a silky, oak-backed frame. Full-bodied and warming, it coats the tongue with dried-fruit sweetness and leaves a refined, marzipan-flecked finish.
Finish
An enduring, sherried finish of dark raisins and figs, brushed with cocoa and toffee. Warming spices—cinnamon and clove—unfold slowly, while toasted oak lends depth. A whisper of coastal brine lingers at the edge, fading to a refined, lingering warmth.
