Glen Elgin Vintage 1998 Managers Choice is bottled at full cask strength, this is part of Diageo’s ‘Managers’ Choice’ series where a special single cask is selected for bottling.

The single cask malts are first tasted blind, in small groups, and then re-evaluated by other experts. There is inevitably much debate and discussion as each expression is nosed and tasted. But finally a consensus is agreed and a cask is selected for release.

The cask selected is a unique expression of the distillery’s single malt.

Limited edition, bottled in 2009, cask No 3678, European Oak, only 534 bottles released.

“Sweet and light with citrus and vanilla flavours”
