Description

Looking for a Speyside single malt that showcases the artistry of wine cask finishing at its finest?

This limited edition expression from the renowned Speyside distillery has been finished in four distinct wine casks from Languedoc, Medoc, Grattamacco, and Recioto Della Valpolicella, creating complexity that rivals expressions like the Balvenie 14 Years Caribbean Cask and Aberlour A’bunadh Alba Cask Strength.
