Glen Scotia Crosshill Classic Campbeltown Malt [1000ML]

Description

What makes a Campbeltown single malt truly exceptional in the world of Scotch whisky?

Glen Scotia Crosshill Classic Campbeltown Malt represents the distinctive maritime character of Scotland’s smallest whisky region. This single malt expression showcases the unique terroir of the Kintyre Peninsula, where sea spray and coastal winds shape every drop. Glen Scotia’s heritage dates back to 1832, making it one of the most authentic voices in Campbeltown whisky-making. For those exploring robust Scottish expressions, consider comparing with Highland single malts or the smoky intensity of Islay blended malts.
