The Glen Scotia Campbeltown 1832 Single Malt represents the traditional character of the historic Campbeltown whisky region and combines maritime freshness, fine smokiness and balanced sweetness in a harmonious overall profile. This bottling was first matured in fine American oak casks before a complementary finish in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. This combination creates a single malt that has both spicy, woody and fruity accents and develops a pleasantly complex structure. The natural yellow gold color is produced without any coloring, and the bottling is non-chill-filtered, which fully preserves the texture, depth and authentic aromas. The presentation in the matching gift box underlines the special character of this edition.
The style of this Campbeltown single malt is deliberately straightforward and has a pleasant, finely balanced peat note. On the nose, ash, smoke and caramel combine with fresh notes of pineapple and oak as well as mild nuances of dates, dried mango and vanilla cake. Earthy undertones, green peppercorns and a hint of cardamom complete the profile. Smoke and caramel reappear on the palate, accompanied by a hint of salty breeze, wood, subtle char and vanilla cake. Delicate traces of mango, cardamom and green pepper round off the flavor profile. Overall, it is pleasant, balanced and with well-defined complexity, without excessive sweetness or dominant smoke.
