- Description
- Glen Elgin's Centenary release marks the distillery's first distillation on 1 May 1900, with this 19-year-old bottled at a powerful 60% ABV in a strictly limited run of 750 bottles. The Speyside character shines through with orchard fruit, honey, and gentle spice, while the higher strength and likely ex-bourbon cask maturation add weight and vanilla backbone. A historic bottling for Glen Elgin devotees and collectors celebrating Scottish whisky's pioneering era.
