Tasting Notes

This exceptional single malt whisky from Glen Elgin Distillery was crafted in 1971 and carefully aged for 22 long years before being bottled by the esteemed independent bottler, Cadenhead's. Part of their Authentic Collection, this whisky was meticulously selected and bottled at a robust 50.1% ABV, showcasing its bold and unapologetic character. Cadenhead's commitment to preserving the essence of each cask shines through, offering a glimpse into the golden era of Speyside whiskies. With a limited release for the US market in the early 90s, this rare gem is a true testament to the art of patient maturation and skilled craftsmanship, making it a coveted treasure for whisky enthusiasts and collectors alike.
