1974 Chieftain's Glen Scotia 30 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

A fabulous find is this one-off Glen Scotia, distilled in 1974 and matured exclusively in a Rum barrel before being bottled in December 2004. Part of Ian Macleod's independent "Chieftain's" label, it was limited to just 204 bottles, we have one only to sell. Non-chill filtered. 42.2% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews... Nose: Buttery yet oily. Complex notes of car mechanic workshop, coconut oil, black olives in brine. With water, goats' cheese, smoke and candied peel. Palate: The oiliness shows best here giving a mouth coating texture. Lemon, light spices. Ever so slightly salty. Pure flavours. Finish: That salty cheese again. Comment: Fantastic balance, but uncompromising. 42.2% Alc./Vol.
