Glen Elgin 2008/2022 Parcel No. 8 – 13 Year Old Speyside Single Malt 48% | The Single Malts of Scotland

Glen Elgin 13 year Parcel No. 8 is an elegant and characterful Speyside single malt, selected and bottled by The Single Malts of Scotland under their acclaimed Reserve Casks range. Distilled in 2008 and bottled in 2022 after 13 years of maturation, this whisky is an honest and terroir-driven expression of Speyside.

This edition is created from eight carefully selected casks and bottled at 48% – with no chill filtration and no added color. This means you experience the whisky in its most natural form with full aromatic depth and texture. The angel’s share has been 15.2%, which is a testament to both the quality of the maturation and the concentration of the whiskies.

The Reserve Casks series is a flavor-driven exploration of fine single malts, made in small batches. The focus is on regional character, individuality and balance – and Glen Elgin is known for its classic, fruity and slightly honeyed style, which is allowed to unfold beautifully here.
