About Glenkinchie Distillers Edition 2020 Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Glenkinchie 12 Year Old was named Best Lowland Single Malt of 2014 at the World Whiskies Awards. This expression from Diageo’s Distillers Edition series takes that-much loved spirit for a second round of maturation in fortified wine casks. American oak casks were first filled with Amontillado sherry for a month, emptied, then filled with the whisky for up to 6 months, before being bottled at 86 proof.

About Glenkinchie
Founded by brothers John and George Rate in 1837, the Glenkinchie distillery sits in the valley of the Kinchie Burn, nearby the village of Pencaitland, East Lothian.
The Glenkinchie distillery shut down in 1853, due to a dip in profits. In 1890 the site was re-opened by a collective of wine merchants and distillers also known as the Glen Kinchie Distillery Company. Glenkinchie was one five distilleries that formed the famous Scottish Malt Distillers Ltd in 1914.Explore all Glenkinchie bottles >>
About Scotch
Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)
Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.
