Description

One of the last remaining distilleries from Campbeltown's glory days as "whisky capital of the world", Glen Scotia's versatility made it extremely useful to blenders; a factor that undoubtedly played a part in its survival of the 1920s cull. That might imply that the life of the small distillery has all been smooth sailing, however the truth is anything but. Glen Scotia has traded hands frequently ...

Nose
Peat smoke, seaside breeze, dried fruit and dunnage warehouse - almost as if it's a sherry cask - interesting. Little hints of banoffee pie and chocolate custard from school days! A slap in the face by some Campbeltown seaweed, a little smoke and some dried pineapple covered in icing sugar.
Palate
Thick oily arrival, loads of tropical fruit, some dried fruit and a kick of peppery spice. A few more sips reveal a sour citrus note, loads of sea breeze and a thin blanket of smoke. There's a dryness to this dram like a chewy dry red wine - by the end of the dram all moisture has been sucked from your mouth! Again thick and oily on the palate, the peat and salt are more prominent on this one - vying for control of your taste buds! I think the peat wins but only just. There's more of the dried pineapple from the nose adding a little sweetness and a little spice but not as much at the #117.
Finish
A lingering sweet dry warmth, there's a little sweetness / spiciness thing going on but the peat smoke and sea salt dominate. This time the smoke dominates - long and lingering, a little spice and the seaweed is back - Yummy!
