Glen Elgin 12 Year Old

One of Speyside's best-kept secrets. Glen Elgin has been distilling since 1898, yet this 12-year-old is its only official bottling, so most whisky drinkers have never come across it.<br> <br> The distillery still uses traditional wooden worm tubs to cool its spirit, a slow, old-fashioned method that builds a rich, rounded texture. The result is a generous, malty Speysider with plenty of soft fruit and warmth. It's a superb everyday dram at a sensible price.<br> <br> Who it's for: Speyside lovers looking beyond the usual names, and anyone who enjoys a malty, easy-drinking single malt.<br> <br> How to enjoy it: Neat or with a splash of water. It's a great one to share with friends who think they know Speyside.
