Description

Still integral to the White Horse blend and ranked 'top class' by blenders, Glen Elgin was the last distillery to be built on Speyside for nearly 60 years after its completion in 1900. It briefly appeared in the Flora & Fauna range but Diageo soon decided to draw more attention to four of their malts - Glen Elgin, Caol Ila, Clynelish, and Glen Ord - by creating the Hidden Malts range. Bottled by The Dava Way, an independent bottling arm of Dunphail Distillery, this 13-year-old single malt was distilled in October 2008 and matured in a single recharred Hogshead. It was bottled in 2022 with an outturn of 286 bottles and is non-chill filtered. [4, 6, 7, 16, 20]
