Limited to just 150 bottles, this latest release from the Campbeltown based distillery, is said to deliver notes of sea-soaked basalt, ripe pineapple, crisp green apples, rose, vanilla and toasted oak on the nose. Followed by notes of caramel, pineapple, mango, watermelon, vanilla and honey on the palate.
Commenting on the news, Michael Henry, Master Distiller, said: “Glen Scotia 45-year-old is one of the most magnificent expressions to be produced by our Campbeltown distillery and we are excited that after 45 years we are now able to unveil it to the world. Distilled in 1973, this single malt is steeped in history and is extraordinarily rare.”
Glen Scotia 45 Year Old, will be available later this month from specialist retailers, for a RRP of £3,795.
