Glen Scotia 14 Year Old Peated Tawny Port Finish / Campbeltown Malts Festival 2020
Despite having been mothballed several times throughout its history, Glen Scotia is a proud survivor of the early 20th century desolation of Campbeltown, once known as "the whisky capital of the world.” The Kintyre peninsula formerly boasted over 30 distilleries, but by the end of the 1920s, only this and Springbank remained. Shut for most of the 1990s before being re-opened by Loch Lomond Distillers, today it is one of only three in the region, with an increasingly prominent portfolio of distillery bottlings in comparison to its quiet output under previous owners.
This peated single malt was bottled at cask strength after being matured in Tawny Port casks. It was bottled specially for the Campbeltown Malts Festival in 2020, however the event was sadly cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
