New dram to highlight the strength of the Glen Scotia brand
CAMPBELTOWN-BASED whisky brand Glen Scotia has introduced a new 12 Year Old single malt to its portfolio.
Sitting alongside the distillery’s 10, 15, 18 and 25 Year Old drams on the shelf, Campbeltown Distillery has said the new 12 Year Old malt will serve as a flagship for the Glen Scotia brand that has been launched in tandem with its new brand identity and is presented in a striking blue and chalk white packaging.
Fully matured in first-fill bourbon barrels, the new dram showcases a vibrant depth and richness of flavour that has been described as bursting with tropical fruit taste, yet balanced through the distillery’s signature maritime notes.

Iain McAlister, master distiller and distillery manager at Glen Scotia, said: “The Glen Scotia 12 Year Old is a bold new classic that will become the heart of our core range representing our signature style and offering whisky lovers a true taste of Campbeltown.
“This expression perfectly captures our signature style and embodies the ethos of Glen Scotia – a small, passionate team honouring traditional methods to create bold, distinctive flavours that we’re proud to share with the world.”
Kevin Wood, global brand manager at Glen Scotia, said: “The launch of the new 12-year-old and our refreshed brand identity marks an exciting new chapter for Glen Scotia.
“The new 12-year-old is quintessentially Glen Scotia – from the royal blue and chalk white packaging referencing our dunnage door and exterior wall, to the bold Campbeltown character within, bursting with tropical fruit flavours that are perfectly balanced with our maritime influence.”
