Glen Scotia 18 — 17 years bourbon + 12-month Oloroso finish. Campbeltown. 46%, non-chill filtered.
Tasting
Sea spray and toffee nose. Spiced honey palate with maritime salt. Long spiced raisin finish. Campbeltown's coastal sherry.
The Verdict
Glen Scotia 18 earns an 8 — outstanding value for 18 years at £120. The coast-meets-sherry character is genuinely distinctive.
