Manzanilla casks since March 2022

Glen Elgin distillery typically produces whisky with a light fruity character which works well with a variety of cask types. The Cadenhead's team felt that Manzanilla casks would add an interesting complexity to this expression. With just over a year spent in Manzanilla, notes of almonds, battenberg cake, salted caramel and melon have been welcomed.

Glen Elgin-Glenlivet Information

A single malt distillery found in Fogwatt, Moray, Glen Elgin began life in 1898. It has been making single malt whisky since 1977 but has been contributing to blends for much longer.

The clear wort, long fermentation and slow distillation contribute to its fruity character. The spirit is also known to be weighty too, so it's very distinctive.
