Rare single-barrel Speyside matured in Oloroso sherry casks
This exceptional single malt is matured exclusively in a single European oak sherry butt for at least 15 years, with each cask yielding no more than 650 numbered bottles. It is a wonderfully rich and complex Scotch, showcasing the profound impact of Oloroso sherry maturation on the classic honeyed distillery character.
