- Description
- Caperdonich's 28-year-old from 1982 was aged in a refill hogshead from June 1982 until September 2010, released as one of just 310 bottles from Douglas Laing's Old Malt Cask series. Extended maturation in refill wood emphasizes the spirit's distillery character over cask influence, likely revealing the subtle, waxy notes Speyside is known for. This is a whisky for purists interested in how distillery character matures across three decades.
