Glen Elgin Rare 18 Year old Single Malt Whisky 54.8% 700ml

Natural cask strength single malt whisky in a limited edition. This whisky comes from a well-known Speyside distillery that deserves to be more known. This is the third release from the original distiller's stocks. One batch was distilled using Pombe yeast for elevated overtones of green apple and aged in ex-bodega casks for richness, while the other was produced with more traditional cerevisiae yeast and aged in refill European Oak butts. Butts made from ex-bodega and refilled European oak. It's interesting to compare this to the 16-year-old released in 2008, which came from the same ex-bodega European Oak. There are just 5,352 bottles available worldwide.
