Glen Scotia 1974 8 years old - 75cl

Up for auction is a magnificent, highly rare, and beautifully preserved bottle of Glen Scotia 8 Year Old Pure Malt Scotch Whisky.
This historic Campbeltown malt was distilled in 1974 and bottled around the late 1970s / early 1980s under the management of A. Gillies & Co. (Distillers) Ltd. Glasgow & Scotland. Presented in the highly collectible, iconic "dumpy" green glass bottle, it features the legendary black labels depicting a traditional Scottish bagpiper in the highlands.
