Tasting Notes
TWB Tasting Notes: On the nose, a harmonious bouquet of dried fruits—figs, dates, and sultanas—interwoven with rich notes of dark chocolate, toasted almonds, and a hint of antique oak. The palate presents luxurious layers of sherry sweetness, revealing flavors of caramelized orange peel, spiced apple tart, and subtle hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. The mouthfeel is silky and opulent, reflecting its long maturation. The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of sweet sherry, gentle spice, and a whisper of smoke, leaving a lasting impression of sophistication and depth.

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.
