Great comparison Greg! The Campbeltown 1832 was the first Glenscotia I bought and really enojyed it. Campbeltown Harbour is ok as a simple daily sipper I think. I absolutely fell in love with the Double Cask when it first came out and drank it passionately but these day it feels a bit off to me. I won the Double Cask Rum Cask finish at a competition and I'm liking it more and more everyday. Have you tried it before? I hear great things about the 25, let's see what you think and I'm curious to see how the 14 fares as old Glen Scotias notoriously and maybe rightfully get a bad rep. Cheers Greg 🥃
Thanks a lot, Sertug, I tried the Rum cask finish only once & liked it but can't say more...i'm worried to hear several people say that more recent batches of the "Double Cask" are disappointing, I hope it's just a few one-offs & not a general decrease of quality, cask selection wise or recipe wise. The 25 yo sample I have is great (hope still ok now) & yeah will open the 14 yo someday but not in a hurry as it is my last bottle but I did like it a lot, more than the 12 yo that I bought in 2007...Cheers buddy ! 🥃
Discovered the rum cask on a shelf at the Edinburgh Fringe this month, delicious, then of course when you know you see it everywhere. Back in Kintyre later in the year - I have my Christmas shopping list sorted!!
I can say GS is always around me. My wife is picking more up for me in Europe. Harbour is the best value at 23€ where I buy them. Cheers. Good Video once again.
Excellent review(s), Greg. Glen Scotia imho a bit under the radar here in Denmark. Not the distillery, I'm most familiar with either, but I've liked what I've tasted so far. Cheers buddy! 🥃
Defiantly a fan of these three. Was really surprised how good the Harbour is for the price and it certainly exceeded my expectations. I loved my first couple bottles of the 2017 double cask but got a couple after that and they were not as good and left me disappointed but I hear the more recent ones a better which I need to try. The 1832 is a great bottle and I love the packaging and it such a shame they changed it as it looks great with the blue harbour and on the bottle. Great review, Cheers Greg!
Interesting take on the Glen Scotia’s Greg. The double cask is hard to beat for value , mid €30’s in Germany. Wouldn’t mind seeing a video that includes the springbank 16 local barley. Slàinte Greg 🥃
Thanks, David ! Wow mid-30 € its a great price indeed ! Lucky Germans...Noted, but wait for the poll, lol...anyway be reassured they'll all be reviewed by the end of the year (why not all before, mind you, because and I forgot to say it in the video, in order not to frustrate too much people who can"t get any Springbank where they live, I'll try to alternate these videos with other reviews of whiskies that, at least for some markets, will be easier to get...Slainte ! 🥃
Hi Greg First time texting you about whisky, which is your favorite Glen Scotia's that you just reviewed, I have a bottle of the victoriana and a bottle of the 15year old, I love what Glen Scotia does, it's one of my favorite distilleries, other than springbank, I'm trying to find a bottle of kilkerran 8year old cask strength that is not off the wall expensive, thanks for the great review, catch you next time !!!
Great video Greg! Personally, I adore Glen Scotia. The only Glen Scotia I've had an up/down relationship with has been the Double Cask. First time I had it it was rich and lovely. The next time, the bottle was corked. I really wanted my Glen Scotia Double Cask fix so I picked up the Double Cask Rum finish for $60CAD(€40). Looking forward to opening it. Cheers my friend 🥃

Thanks, Ken, I hope that when I'll have to replace my Double Cask I'll come across a good batch then...Cheers !
Discovered the Double Cask Rum Barrel this week, superb
it is a nice one indeed, along with the Campbeltown Festival White Port cask imo, but alas haven't been able to get them for me yet, Cheers !
Watching till the end haha, looking forward to the other 2 Glen Scotia reviews. Enjoy the holiday week 🫡
Thanks, Matt ! sorry maybe I wasn't clear that I'll cover them in another series of videos...
@GregsWhiskyGuide you were clear buddy! Looking forward to when you get to them in another video 😀
Wow, what a line up. Also looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Local Barley 16.
Thanks, the poll will be set up soon...
