Glen Scotia 1991-2015, Hogshead, 46% – Wemyss ‘Leather Bound Ledger’
So, old books and cracker leather lay ahead of us, going by the title. Wemyss is a bit of an oddball bottler in my book. Not in a very negative way, but I do think their blended malts get in … Continue reading
Glen Scotia 17, 1977-1994, 57.5% – Cadenhead Authentic Collection
Unless things go horribly awry, I’ll be in Campbeltown in 9 days. Contrary to what you might expect we’re not visiting any distilleries, since time is ridiculously limited and we’re already visiting Watt Whisky. Of course, we’re visiting some shops … Continue reading
Best of Wines’ Blind Tasting Competition #3
The penultimate post on Best of Wines’ BTC, with another batch of three interesting drams. Interestingly, there was another on in here I should have recognized, and another that I have in my collection but haven’t gotten around to yet. … Continue reading
Glen Scotia 26, 1992-2018, Bourbon Hogshead, 47.3% – Cadenhead
I went into this dram with great expectations. It’s Glen Scotia, which I love. It’s also Cadenhead, which I also love. Of course, both have their ups and downs. Since it’s been quite a while since I got this sample, … Continue reading
Glen Scotia 20, 1992-2012, Hogshead 08/71, 50.4% – Archives
If I’m not mistaken this was in the first batch of whiskies ever released by Archives, which has since become a more-or-less household name for whisky fanatics in The Netherlands, and abroad. I got my hands on a bottle recently, … Continue reading
Glen Scotia 20, 1992-2012, 51.9% – Westwood Whisky
This completely random Glen Scotia came from an auction a few months ago. By now the bottle is empty because of me liking the whisky, it being used in a tasting and some bottle-shares. For some reason the ‘Westwood’ thing … Continue reading
Glen Scotia Dunnage Warehouse Tasting
As with virtually everything, Glen Scotia’s open day during the Campbeltown Malts Festival got cancelled. Maybe ‘virtually’ isn’t the right word, because the virtual version is the one thing that did take place. To compensate the sadness that followed of … Continue reading
Glen Scotia 2008-2018, 9yo, 55.9% – Kintra Whisky
I might be a bit of a snob, but when I’m at a whisky festival, I veer towards the exclusive stuff. Random 9 year old whiskies I generally skip. Not just at festival but also in shops. Why? These can … Continue reading
Glen Scotia 12yo, 2006-2019, 59.1% – Whiskybase
With every ten thousand new bottlings added to WhiskyBase they release a new whisky. Apart from that Whiskybase occasionally releases something extra, and this Glen Scotia was exactly that. It was released last year, at twelve years old from a … Continue reading
