This famous Speyside distillery is highly sought-after, especially in this age range. 10 years in ex-Oloroso casks was followed by 6 years in ex-PX casks, creating a malt to behold. Enjoy with a grilled steak, cigar, or all by itself. The richness and depth is quite impressive.

Tasting Panel Notes
Emanating from the oven, the perfume of lebkuchen mingled with a moka pot of coffee, red wine and panna cotta topped with cracked black pepper and black cherries. The palate was sweet and woody, evoking pistachio biscuits, while candied mandarin and dark chocolate mingled with parma violets and rosemary. Water introduced fresh mint to the nose, alongside cream sherry, cinnamon gum and toasted waffles with candied ginger. The palate now delivered chocolate stout, stirred with liquorice and garnished with raspberries. At 10 years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
