This single malt Scotch whisky, Glen Elgin 2011, is a true example of craftsmanship, distilled at the Glen Elgin Distillery located in Speyside and aged for 11 years. Bottled in 2022, this whisky is a single cask offering from Hidden Spirits, an independent Italian bottler renowned for their selective and artisanal approach to whisky. The final aging period took place in an Oloroso Sherry cask, which enriches the flavor by adding the sweet, nutty, and fruity character of sherry to the mild character of Glen Elgin distillery.
Upon the first sip, the whisky reveals its fullness with notes of viscous honey, ripe plums, and a complex spice palate featuring cinnamon and clove. The aroma opens with scents of plump raisins and candied orange peel, followed by a warm spiciness of nutmeg and a hint of oak. The finish is long and satisfying, with a lingering sweetness and an elegant spiciness that caresses the tongue.
This whisky is a unique expression of the Glen Elgin distillery, with a limited number of bottles produced, making it a special and rare find for any whisky collector or enthusiast. The Oloroso Sherry cask finish adds a depth and richness to the whisky, making it a truly exceptional and memorable drinking experience. The integration of the Oloroso cask flavors is subtle yet unmistakable, contributing to the whisky’s creamy, fudge-like texture and touch of dried fruits. It’s a gem that offers an exceptional price-to-quality ratio, perfect for those who appreciate refined and well-balanced whisky.
