This is a 12 year old Glen Elgin malt Scotch whisky, bottled in the 1980s and labelled as a Pure Highland Malt. The White Horse appears on the label. The colour is gold. The nose is resinous and phenolic, with meaty notes, soot and a little metal polish, later turning earthy and mushroomy with smoked tea, camphor, hessian and wax polish. The palate is peppery, smoky and very dry, with tar, liquorice wood, soft chilli, mustard, bitter caramel, thyme and a note of garlic. The finish is rather long, dry and smoky.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
