Tasting Notes

Refill Sherry Butt - Natural Cask Strength (52.2%). No colouring or chill-filtration. Distilled November 1967, bottled August 2018. 248 bottles produced.

Only 258 bottles of this 50-year-old were produced, having been distilled in 1967 at an undisclosed Speyside legend. Bottled in 2018, this fabulous whisky was matured in a refill sherry butt.

From Douglas Laing's tasting note:
"The nose carries a big Sherry sweetness, then comes chocolate orange, stewed dark fruits (plums and cherries) and chewed leather. Deliciously zesty orange on the palate, with fruitcake and cocoa developing to winter spice and smoky espresso. The finish is lingering with peppery chocolate, malted barley, ginger and treacle toffee."
