Glen Elgin is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky distillery near Longmorn in Moray. It was founded in 1898 and is owned by Diageo.
A delightful, quintessential single malt with waxy, fruity notes of quince, green pineapple and apricot, though it stops just short of excellence.

Sweet pear, apricot and malt give way to caramel, toffee and chocolate, but loud oak and an overdone malty-caramelly character make for a less elegant dram.
An interesting fatty, waxy style with abundant malt, honey and citrus candy, making for a good middle-aged whisky.
