- Glen Moray's 1981 vintage, bottled in 2001 at full strength (57.7%) from a single sherry butt hand-selected by distillery manager Edwin Dodson, offers deep amber colour and rich, complex Speyside character. The sherry maturation brings dried fruit, chocolate, and warming spice to Glen Moray's naturally fruity profile, with excellent balance and integration at 19 years.
