Information
Scotland, Campbeltown, Mull of Kintyre. Distillery operational. Owner: Loch Lomond Group
It is almost a miracle that Glen Scotia survived the crises of the 20th century and the periods of restructuring that were to hit the Scotch whisky industry. And yet, along with Springbank, it was for a long time one of only two survivors of the long and inexorable decline of Campbeltown, once a veritable whisky metropolis. Glen Scotia boasts a handful of bottlings, all now extremely rare, dating from the 60s and 70s and aged between 5 and 12 years old.From the late 1980s, its bottlings were similar to those of Littlemill, as the distilleries both belonged to the same owners. Since 2015, the Loch Lomond group has completely redefined the distillery's range and released a plethora of exclusive bottlings.
A single malt aged for at least 12 years, bottled by Glen Scotia Distillery Co Ltd from the mid-1990s. This bottling (bottle shape and design) was initially released in the early 1980s in an 8 year old version by A. Gillies & Co, who owned the distillery from 1955 to 1984. Glen Scotia was sold in 1989 to the Gibson International group, then in 1994 to Glen Catrine Bonded Warehouse Ltd, and incorporated in 1996 into Loch Lomond Distillery & Co.As the distillery was closed between 1984 and 1989, and again between 1994 and 2000, the malt found in this version could date from the period 1980-1984. Bottle equipped with a cork stopper and gold foil seal.
