Tasting Notes
TWB Tasting Notes: On the nose, rich aromas of dried fruits—raisins, figs, and dates—intertwine with notes of honey, dark chocolate, and a hint of spice. The palate reveals a luxurious blend of sherry sweetness, featuring flavors of caramelized brown sugar, ripe plums, and toasted almonds, all complemented by subtle oak influences from the sherry cask. The finish is long and warming, leaving lingering notes of sweet spices, sherry richness, and gentle oak tannins.

The Distillery
Glen Elgin
Glen Elgin Distillery, designed by Charles C. Doig and founded in 1898 by William Simpson and James Carle, sits beside the Morayshire Railway in Fogwatt, firmly within Scotland’s Speyside malt whisky heartland. Equipped with six small stills and six round wooden worm tubs, Glen Elgin is among the few remaining distilleries to embrace this traditional cooling method, contributing a distinctive character to its spirit. Although much of Glen Elgin’s output supports White Horse blends, the only official distillery release is the Glen Elgin 12 Year Old, while independent bottlers—such as Coopers Choice, Cadenhead, and Signatory Vintage—offer additional single malt expressions cherished by whisky enthusiasts worldwide.
