Description

Glen Scotia 12 Year Old Icons Of Campbeltown Release No.1 The Mermaid is the inaugural release in the distillery's five-part limited edition Icons of Campbeltown series. This unpeated single malt was matured in ex-bourbon casks and finished for eight months in rare Palo Cortado sherry casks.
