Glenkinchie Double Matured 2006 Distillers Edition (Bottled in 2018)
Glenkinchie Double Matured 2006 Distillers Edition is a Lowland single malt Scotch whisky distilled in 2006 and bottled in 2018. This 12 year old Distillers Edition release is double matured with an Amontillado cask influence, giving Glenkinchie’s typically grassy, delicate style a nuttier, drier and more structured profile.
This Glenkinchie Distillers Edition was distilled in 2006 and bottled in 2018 as an original bottling at 43% ABV. The exact-product source lists it as a 12 year old single malt from Scotland’s Lowlands, matured with ex-bourbon and ex-Amontillado sherry cask influence, with the Distillers Edition format highlighting double maturation.
The verified aroma profile is balanced between sweet and dry, bringing vanilla, fresh grapes, nutty malted barley and a touch of oak. On the palate it begins with fresh pastry sweetness before turning drier, with pronounced malt and grape-like fruit. The finish is described as very long and dry, carried by spicy oak and subtle peppery notes.
Choose this bottle for drinkers who enjoy Lowland single malt whisky with a dry sherry-cask influence rather than heavy smoke. Serve it neat in a whisky glass to follow the sweet-to-dry development, or add a few drops of water if preferred.
