AWARD-WINNING WHISKY
Glen Scotia Victoriana won a gold medal in the prestigious 2020 World Spirits Competition in San Francisco. The competition is renowned for its high standards, and not only did Victoriana — and indeed several other of Glen Scotia’s whiskies — scoop a gold, but Glen Scotia 25 Year Old was awarded the highly prestigious ‘Best Whisky in the World 2021’ title at the following year’s competition.
THE SPIRIT OF CAMPBELTOWN
Inspired by Victorian times, Glen Scotia Victoriana is matured in specially-selected casks and finished in heavily-charred oak and ex-sherry casks to emulate the character of the early Campbeltown whiskies. The region has a rich history of whisky production, at one point having 29 working distilleries in the town itself, and Glen Scotia carries on this tradition by producing the subtle maritime style for which the region is still renowned.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE | An elegant nose with hints of oak driving the bouquet. Interesting creme brulee notes leading to generous caramelised fruits and finally polished oak. |
PALATE | Sweet and concentrated start with some jammy blackcurrant fruitiness. A big mid palate. Typical tightening towards the back palate. Becomes more austere with water. |
FINISH | Clean and initially sweet. The green bean, with cocoa characteristic. |
