Here’s a distillery you very rarely come across ! Glen Elgin is a Speyside distillery founded in 1898 by partners William Simpson and James Carle who did not enjoy great fortune and sold the distillery just 3 years later. After this shaky start and another new ownership the distillery re-opened in 1906 and quickly became popular with blenders of the time. Glen Elgin has been and is a key component in the famous White Horse blended malts. Traditional worm tubs are still used to cool the spirit produced. The resulting character of the whisky is full-bodied, mellow with a honeyed sweetness. As much of the spirit made goes into blending the Glen Elgin 12 year old is the only official bottling.
Besides the occasional Diageo special release, independent bottlings, like this exceptional one from Signatory, are the only way to access & enjoy Glen Elgin as a single malt. Distilled in 1991 & laid to rest for a HUGE 33 years in  1st fill Oloroso sherry butt #4073 before being bottled in 2024 at 54.2% abv. One of just 529 bottles, un-chillfiltered with natural colour. This is a truly exceptional single cask whisky full of complexity.
