Description
Glen Scotia's 8-year-old from 2014 was finished in a first-fill Pedro Ximénez cask, adding rich, raisined sweetness to Campbeltown's characteristically briny, maritime spirit. Pedro Ximénez influence brings dark sugar, dried fruit, and molasses depth to the base malt's salty, slightly funky Campbeltown signature. The texture is sweet and viscous, with a warming finish balancing maritime salinity against wine-cask sweetness. Best enjoyed neat or with minimal water to experience the contrast between Campbeltown's coastal character and generous sherry influence.
