Description
Details
Glenkinchie 1996 Distillers Edition Lowland single malt Scotch whisky. After mellowing in a refill cask to develop the soft distillery character for a decade, a secondary maturation in a specifically chosen amontillado sherry wood cask ensures that all the good work continues.
Gold award winner International Wine & Spirits Competition 2011.
Tasting Notes
Details
Intense, a biscuity-sweetness followed by a long echoing interplay of sugar sweetness and oaky dryness. An astonishingly long finish, dry and soothing.

Glenkinchie Single Malt Whisky
Glenkinchie Distillery was established as Milton Distillery near Pencaitland in East Lothian by John Rate in 1825. Although equipped with just two stills its wash still is one of the largest in Scotland and the spirit is still cooled in cask iron worm tubs fed by the Kinchie Burn. The old maltings now house an excellent museum and visitor centre which offers distillery tours and samples. Official bottlings of single malt are the Glenkinchie 12 Year Old and the Distillers Edition.
