A fruity, floral and honeyed distillate. Originally matured in a hogshead and finished for over six years in a first fill ex-Amontillado sherry cask sourced from Josafer cooperage.
One of our favourite Speyside distilleries to work with over the years due to its huge versatility and compatibility to mature well in many different types of cask. Long fermentation and worm tub condensation contribute to its incredibly fruity output. Here we have a very long 6 year finish in a fresh Amontillado cask resulting in a wonderfully chocolaty and spicy whisky.
The taste revealed - stewed strawberries, nutmeg and chocolate coffee beans.

Glen Elgin is a Speyside distillery located in the hamlet of Fogwatt, Morayshire. It was founded in 1898 by partners William Simpson and James Carle who did not enjoy great fortune and sold the distillery three years later to the Glen Elgin-Glenlivet Distillery Co. After this shaky start and another new ownership the distillery re-open in 1906 and quickly became popular with blenders of the time. Glen Elgin has been and is a key component in the well know White Horse blended malts.
Traditional worm tubs are still used to cool the spirit produced. The resulting character of the whisky is full-bodied, mellow with a honeyed sweetness. As much of the spirit made goes into blending the Glen Elgin 12 year old is the only official bottling. There are also some excellent independent bottlings that help to showcase just how good Glen Elgin is as a single malt.
