The wine

A Glen Scotia 14 Year Old bottled in the 1990s. This bottle appeared in the 1980s. At the time the range included an 8 year old, a 14 year old and a 15 year old in a stocky bottle, and a 54% 12 year old in a straight bottle. It was replaced in 2005 by a Glen Scotia 12 year old and in 2012 by the current range.

About the Producer Glen Scotia

Scotland, Campbeltown, Mull of Kintyre. Distillery operational. Owner: Loch Lomond Group

It is almost a miracle that Glen Scotia survived the crises of the 20th century and the periods of restructuring that were to hit the Scotch whisky industry. And yet, along with Springbank, it was for a long time one of only two survivors of the long and inexorable decline of Campbeltown, once a veritable whisky metropolis. Glen Scotia boasts a handful of bottlings, all now extremely rare, dating from the 60s and 70s and aged between 5 and 12 years old.From the late 1980s, its bottlings were similar to those of Littlemill, as the distilleries both belonged to the same owners. Since 2015, the Loch Lomond group has completely redefined the distillery's range and released a plethora of exclusive bottlings.
